“Robert Morgan has done it again! With fresh prose, startling imagery, powerful quotations, and an avalanche of gripping stories—ancient and modern—Morgan encourages us to believe that, indeed, all those bad things that assault us are being engineered by an all-powerful God for our welfare. You won’t want to put it down! But it’s not just an exciting read. It’s solid theology and thoroughly grounded in Scripture. No mater how submerged in intractable troubles, here you will find hope.”

“Rob Morgan never disappoints me. I have read many of his books, and they all do what a good book should do: they make you think about life from a new and fresh perspective. The Promise is a brand new treatment of an old and enduring verse! After you have finished reading it, put it where you can find it. If you don’t need it, someone you love will!”

Morgan (Then Sings My Soul; The Children’s Daily Devotional Bible) devotes his pastoral heart to the well-known New Testament verse Romans 8:28: We know that all things work together for the good of those who love God: those who are called according to His purpose. First Morgan puts the verse in context and then dissects it phrase by phrase. He puts emphasis on the fine print fact that this verse isn’t for universal distribution without conditions, but is instead only for those who meet the requirement of loving God. Morgan moves beyond this oft-quoted passage to delve into the verses that follow, spending time on issues such as predestination and justification until concluding with Paul’s final words in Romans 8, the most soaring, breathtaking poetry in all his writings. Morgan also looks closely at verses in Genesis and Ephesians that add depth and detail to the Romans passage. He sprinkles real-life examples and hymn texts throughout, creating a Bible study book that is both profound and simple, loving and firm, hopeful and helpful. We have, says Morgan, a God-given assurance that every single circumstance will sooner or later turn out well for those fully committed to Jesus Christ.
