Romans 1: Finding a Fresh Start with God
Luther called Romans the masterpiece of the New Testament. Within twenty-five years of Pentecost, the gospel had reached the capital of the empire, and Paul wrote what may be the greatest defense of the faith.
Romans 1: Finding a Fresh Start with God is a 12-lesson Courageous Living workbook by Wilson Adams covering Romans 1–8.
How This Study Helps
Romans can feel heavy, with long arguments about sin, law, faith, and justification. Many readers get lost in the logic and miss the good news at its center.
This study walks through the first eight chapters in clear, readable lessons: Paul's unashamed gospel, God's holy wrath, the universal problem of sin, what justified Abraham, what God has done for you in Christ, and the joy of being adopted as His children. It ends with Romans 8 and the hope that wraps our earthly lives in eternal joy.
