Each volume in the series provides exposition that gives careful attention to the biblical text, is doctrinally Reformed, focuses on Christ through the lens of redemptive history, and applies the Bible to our contemporary setting. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTable of Contents:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003col\u003e \u003cli\u003eCaptivated by Christ Jesus (1:1-2)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHe Finishes What He Starts (1:3-8)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eA Pastor’s Passionate Prayer (1:9-11)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePrison Is Great – Wish You Were Here!
