The Pastoral Epistles contain some of the most controversial passages in the New Testament. They are also the most personal New Testament letters. The Classic Commentaries and Studies on the Pastoral Epistles Upgrade presents commentaries written from multiple traditions, each examining the epistles from their unique perspective. Authorship of the letters draws a great deal of attention in each volume—from both traditional and non-traditional commentators. At varying levels, each commentary in this collection focuses on the text, and seeks to make it more understandable to readers.

Christianity has long been associated with the West, often creating a disjunction affecting the understanding of the essence of the gospel. The Asianization of Christianity is a clarion call by Asian Christian leaders for the gospel to be indigenized by encouraging practitioners to seriously engage with both the Bible and the cultures of Asia. The book demonstrates that both the theology and the presentation of the gospel need to be framed according to the mindset of the respective Asian cultures so that the message of the Bible can be understood and accepted. Case studies on evangelism, church, and training models from several Asian nations are explored. Core issues such as culture, communication, and contextualization underpin the practical cases to give depth and clarity for the effective communication of the gospel.
