PHILIPPIANS FOR TODAY
By Gerard Chrispin
Day One. 347 pages. £10.00
ISBN1 84625 000 5

Not another commentary on Philippians, I hear you groan! My own bookshelves already bend under the combined weight of the published material available for this letter from prison.

And yet this book, written by a man who spends a lot of time in prison ( as a Chaplain for Day One Prison Ministries!) about a man (Paul the apostle) whose life was marked by prison experiences as he suffered for the gospel of Christ, has a certain authenticity about it.
