The Contemporary Christian series - John Stott in your pocket

September 1, 2021 Tom Creedy

John Stott's bestselling volume, The Contemporary Christian: An Urgent Plea for Double Listening, updated and presented for today's audience

In June 2019 we republished John Stott’s classic book, The Contemporary Christian. Rather than create a new edition, we split the 400+ pages book into 5 shorter books, with common introductory material. Tim Chester, working in conjunction with IVP editorial staff and Stott’s literary executors, have refreshed this classic book for a new generation of readers – and listeners!

The Contemporary Christian series are all available as attractively packed little paperbacks, great value ebooks, or audiobooks read by Tim Chester.

The series includes the following volumes:

The Gospel: A Life-changing Message – Stott explains the radical message of the Gospel

The Bible: A Book Like No Other- Stott unpacks his belief in the Bible and how we can enjoy it

The Church: A Unique Gathering of People – Stott calls us to consider the supernatural nature of God’s people

The Disciple: A Calling to Be Christlike – Stott invites us to a life of radical love, following Jesus.

The World: A Mission to Be Accomplished – Stott challenges us to fulfil the Great Commission
