Try This Instead

Not sure if this is the right fit?

Consider Chosen by God by R. C. Sproul.

Reads like a brisk, sermon-esque argument that insists predestination follows from human sinfulness and frequent scripture quotation. Chapters are short and direct, so the useful part is a compact, scripture-centered statement you can reference or teach from without wading through lengthy debate. The annoying part is repetition: the same passages and tight doctrinal framing are reiterated until the argument feels circular. Lacks pastoral case studies or practical steps, so readers seeking nuance or application will want something broader.
