There are commentaries and there are books on preaching—but very few books that combine elements of both to enable the preacher or Bible teacher to prepare a series on specific sections of Scripture. This series gives the Bible teacher suitable tools to understand the context of biblical books, doctrinal themes, methods of interpretation, key interpretation points, and how to communicate that message clearly. While very useful for preachers, this collection is also aimed at equipping small group study leaders, youth workers, and other Bible teachers. The books are purposefully practical.

Teaching 1 Peter looks at the first letter from the apostle to a primarily gentile audience scattered around Asia Minor. Angus MacLeay explains the context of this letter and its relevance in a contemporary setting where Christians are surrounded by a pagan culture. He also suggests practical theological applications for specific situations that still affect the church today. This book is a useful tool for anyone teaching the book of 1 Peter.

This series is designed to help the pastor/preacher, a small group leader or a youth worker teach their way through a Biblical book. It will help you in planning and executing a lesson advising on background, structure, key points and application. There are also books that look at teaching key Biblical themes such the Holy Spirit and Eschatology. They are all geared to teach you the truth of Scripture. This series is published in conjunction with PT Resources whose aim is to encourage ministry that seeks above all to expound the Bible as God’s Word for today.

The Focus on the Bible Commentary series is practical and insightful with contributions by top evangelical scholars and pastors, and are designed to be readable for ordinary Christians, reliable for in-depth study of the Bible, and relevant for daily Christian life. Discover not only what the music of the Psalms, the plight of Job, the story of Jesus, and the spread of the New Testament church meant then, but what these stories—and the whole of Scripture—means today!

Timothy from Lystra was known as the “son” of Paul the Apostle, and as his apprentice, was to learn the ways of the faith from him. Timothy was later sent to Ephesus to serve as Paul’s representative. The Ephesians had lost their focus on the message of the Gospel; they were materialistic and their lives were marked by ungodly living. Timothy’s task was to call them back to the cross, to remind them what Jesus Christ had done for them, and to set their sights on Christ’s future return. Until the...

The books of 2 Peter and Jude are some of the least preached in the New Testament. However, these dynamic little books have an important message to be declared to the church in the 21st century. The need to ‘contend for the faith’ is vital in a confusing church landscape of compromise, pragmatism and drift. These books are dense and brimming with truth and so our hope is that this book helps you see all that is contained within their pages. Teaching 2 Peter and Jude is a great addition to the growing ‘Teaching the Bible’ series. It will be a great aid to those who have the privilege and joy of teaching or preaching these particular books. Whether you are a small group leader, preacher, youth worker or someone who simply want help with their personal Bible study, this book will help you to comprehend and communicate the messages of 2 Peter and Jude.
