Using the church as a framework, Through the Year with John Stott explores in 365 days the whole biblical story from creation to the end times. One of the most highly respected Bible teachers of our times, John Stott gets to the heart of each of the 365 carefully selected passages, covering every essential Christian teaching in a single volume. The readings are broken up into weekly themes. Each devotion is based on a key passage of Scripture, and includes biblical references for further exploration. This new edition of this much-loved classic devotional includes a new foreword from Old Testament Scholar Chris Wright.

Exposition, commentary, and practical application of the meaning and message of the Bible will be found throughout this giant volume. Bible students without any background in Bible study will find this book of immense help as will those who have spent much time studying the Scriptures, including pastors and teachers. Explore the Book is the result and culmination of a lifetime of dedicated Bible study and exposition on the part of Dr. Baxter. It shows throughout a deep awareness and appreciation of the grand themes of the gospel, as found from the opening book of the Bible through Revelation.

Unique in style and scope, a commentary on the book of Proverbs, written in devotional style, and divided into chapters suitable for daily reading. Messianic in approach, it uses the Complete Jewish Bible and refers to rabbinic interpretation of Proverbs throughout. A virtual encyclopedia of practical advice on family relationships, sexual morality, finances, reputation and gossip, laziness and diligence, honesty and justice, kindness and love, humility and pride, violence and discipline.
"Reading Revelation through genuine Jewish eyes is like watching TV in color for the first time." The Book of Revelation is perhaps the most mysterious, difficult-to-understand book in all of the Bible. Scholar after scholar, theologian after theologian have wrestled with all the strange visions, images and messages given by Yochanan (John), one of Yeshua's apostles.
If you've ever wanted to get to know Yeshua, the Jewish Messiah, the Good News of Matthew is the best place to start. Yet, few commentators are able to truly present Yeshua in his Jewish context. Most don't understand his background, his family, or even his religion, and miss the full picture of who he really is.
