Love Is Patient

Peter DeHaan · 2021
68/100
👎 Skip It

A competent 40-day study of 1 and 2 Corinthians that covers the material thoroughly and serves small groups well. DeHaan's deliberately provocative tone — meant to challenge church status quo — may energize some readers and alienate others. The devotional format keeps things accessible but trades away any serious exegetical depth.
