  • reflection questions help readers engage the text at a deeper level;
  • "Gospel Glimpses" highlight the gospel of grace throughout the book;
  • "Whole-Bible Connections" show how any given passage connects to the Bible's overarching story of redemption, culminating in Christ;
  • "Theological Soundings" identify how historic orthodox doctrines are taught or reinforced throughout Scripture.
