What if the words Jesus spoke to seven ordinary churches two thousand years ago were written directly to you? Letters from the Road takes readers on a seven-week journey along the ancient road connecting Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea, the seven churches addressed in Revelation 2-3. In thirty-five devotionals, Dr. Chris McCormick unpacks what Jesus commended, challenged, commanded, and promised each church, and shows how those same words carry startling relevance for the church, and for the individual believer, today. Each devotional closes with a reflection question and a prayer prompt, making this book equally suited for personal devotion time or group Bible study. Along the way, readers encounter churches celebrated for their faithfulness and churches corrected for compromise. One church, remarkably, receives no rebuke at all, only encouragement for enduring suffering with unwavering faith.

"Dr. Chris McCormick is not only wise, he has become a trusted voice of spiritual wisdom for many, including me. In Letters from the Road, you will find yourself encouraged and challenged to experience Jesus in life-changing ways," writes Chad Gilligan, Lead Pastor of Calvary Church in Maumee, Ohio.

Dr. McCormick is an ordained minister and associate pastor at Calvary Church in Maumee, Ohio, holding a Master of Divinity from Winebrenner Theological Seminary and a Doctor of Ministry from Assemblies of God Theological Seminary, and this book grew out of a Wednesday night teaching series he led at Calvary Church, walking the congregation through Jesus's letters to the seven churches of Revelation.
