Romans is so deep. How can a person wrap his brain around such a book? An overview of the book is a good starting place. In this RE:CHURCH episode, Marshall Fant interviews David Shumate about his 8-week series on the book. Dr. Shumate served for 15 years as an associate pastor, directed a mission board for 17 years, and now serves as academic dean at International Baptist College in Chandler, AZ. Speaking of Romans 5:1-5, he says "Certain truths are so weighty and heavy that I regularly come back to them. We need to build a ballast of such truths in our lives."
