“A wonderfully faithful and useful commentary, the work of a man who is both a scholarly pastor and a pastoral scholar. The writing is clear and engaging, the scholarship is careful and thorough, and the pastoral application is penetrating and thoughtful.”
—Christopher Ash, Writer in Residence, Tyndale House, Cambridge

—Bryan Chapell, Stated Clerk, Presbyterian Church in America
“Paul’s second epistle to the Corinthians is passionate, pastoral, and shockingly transparent about the apostle’s sufferings and shortcomings... Pastor Trent Casto’s exposition of this letter blends sound interpretation with heart-searching application, making the apostle’s message uncomfortably humbling and strikingly contemporary.”
—Dennis E. Johnson, Professor Emeritus of Practical Theology, Westminster Seminary California

—Peter A. Lillback, President, Westminster Theological Seminary

—Joel R. Beeke, President, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary
“I’ve had the privilege of sitting under Trent Casto’s teaching and observing the vitality of his personal walk with God. This volume reflects both academic rigor and the warmth of a pastor’s heart. Most importantly, it flows from the life of a practitioner leading a local church that is bearing much fruit.”
—Chip Ingram, Author, True Spirituality and The Real God
