"Drawing on a profound experience in the ministry, Irv Brendlinger helps us read Ephesians so we might recover the necessary implications of the Incarnation of God. Through his wisdom and experiences in this book we begin to catch glimpses of the way forward. This is a wonderful book and his discussion on maturity is especially insightful.
