I have been really pleased with N.T. Wright’s brief works on different books of the New Testament called the “For Everyone” series. I am going to make it a habit of putting one of these in the hands of each of the teachers when they are covering a New Testament book. He is concise, throws in just enough background to help you get the point and even makes some really good application. I have been really happy with this series of books by N.T. Wright.

Just yesterday, the two little books on the Gospel of John came in the mail. Yea! This is such good stuff.
Frank,
Glad you like them! I am wrapping up a series on John and those books have been invaluable.
Never heard of it…thanks for the recommendation!
Thanks for speaking up about these. I bought the BWIII Acts cmmty and am awaiting the delivery of Wright’s Everyone Romans books.
I’m a pastor, and I entirely agree that this series is excellent.
N.T. Wright is both a scholar and a pastor, which is what makes this series so helpful to so many people. The series really is -for everyone-. Wright is very good at taking large and complex truth, and explaining it in a helpful and applicable way. His comments help me to get to the heart of the Scriptures, and his illustrations often find a way into my sermons.
My wife, who labels herself a “non-academic,” thoroughly enjoys using her “Romans for Everyone” during her devotions because it makes sense to her.
