The Man on the Middle Cross

Imagine… You’re waiting at the gates of heaven when you’re asked, “Why should we let you in?” What would you say? Could you meet the entry requirements?

This short and engaging book by Alistair Begg introduces three ordinary people who had no way to be sure what was in store beyond this life—until they discovered an extraordinary hope. This is the offer of the gospel: An eternity not dependent on effort or endeavor, but on the one who stands inviting us to “come.”

Powerful Gospel Proclamation

When I first heard the clip of Alistair Begg's viral sermon on the man on the middle cross, I was so struck by how powerful the message was – not just for the non-Christian, but also for the church! I think we all need reminders of the simplicity of the gospel message of Jesus's invitation of salvation and welcome to a lost world. Read this book for yourself to be encouraged and then give it to a friend who needs the message of salvation for themselves.

A great tool for evangelism

In this short book, Alistair Begg highlights three people from gospels and shows their need for more beyond this life: salvation. It beautifully displays that we contribute nothing to our salvation and relies on Christ alone. This is intended for the use of evangelism and would be a great tool to keep on your shelf to giveaway!
