Philippians and 1 and 2 Thessalonians (New Testament Everyday Bible Study Series)
Overview
Scot McKnight provides scholarly insights with a pastoral heart for Philippians and 1, 2 Thessalonians to help readers understand the way of living the King Jesus Gospel today. The NIV is used as the primary Bible text but McKnight also includes insights from his own translation. Each Bible study features a short, compact, clear exposition that both summarizes the whole and gives the reader a clear focus for what is central to the passage in each book.
McKnight also offers some historical context; connects the passage to the larger story of the Bible; provides an illustration, a metaphor, or an image that brings the passage alive; includes Bible study questions; and provides a list of 2-3 resources for further reading or study. The series is suitable for group study, personal study, or daily reading.
