Overview
Verse by Verse with Dr. Grant C. Richison exposes the mind of God to the mind of man by expounding individual books of God's Word verse by verse. Each study includes an exposition, a principle from the exposition, and an application of the principle to experience.
Verse by Verse is a practical, in-depth, and applicable commentary for church leaders. Whether or not you own any other Logos products, these commentaries will be easier than ever to use because of their seamless integration into the powerful Logos software. Anyone who can use a mouse will be able to experience the Bible in new and profound ways through the use of Dr. Richison's easy-to-understand commentaries.
Each Verse by Verse commentary begins with helpful background information about each book's author, date, purpose, theme and value. The commentary section is laid out in an easy-to-follow format. Richison provides commentary on every verse along with a principle that summarizes what the verse means. But Verse by Verse doesn't stop there, an application section under each verse further illustrates how each principle can be "lived out" in the reader's life. That's what makes this collection so special. Verse by Verse was written to make Christians more aware of what the Bible teaches for their life.

Praise for the Print Edition
Grant Richison has given all pastors and teachers a new tool to mine the wealth of truth in God’s Word. I have always been a proponent of working “smarter not harder” because of the stewardship of my time. When I used “Verse by verse” it literally cut my research time by more than half, not to mention the fact that Dr. Richison has provided access to resources well beyond the volumes on my shelves! While the Word we proclaim never changes, Dr. Richison has provided a new and wonderful tool for our study of it! I believe every serious student of the scriptures who is looking for a portal through which he can have all the necessary resources literally at his fingertips will love Verse by Verse!
