Galatians Verse By Verse
$22.99After the Apostle Paul returned from his first missionary journey, he heard that a certain group of legalistic Jewish Christians had infiltrated the churches he had established. These false teachers were teaching that new Christians had to be circumcised and follow the Old Testament law in order to be truly saved. Paul, realizing the gospel was at stake, wrote this letter in response.
In Galatians Verse by Verse, experienced New Testament scholar sets forth Paul’s laser-focused argument: Jesus is not only the Messiah; he came to inaugurate a new era in salvation history. In this new era, Christians are not made right with God by obeying the law; justification is by faith alone. This frees believers to live their lives not trying to earn salvation, but instead joyfully keeping in step with the Spirit. Pastors, Bible study leaders, and invested laypeople will all benefit from Osborne’s careful reading of the text and commitment to making sense of the New Testament without scholarly jargon.

Revelation Verse By Verse
$32.99Revelation is like no other book in the New Testament. Its bizarre images need explaining even for seasoned Bible readers, but when we turn to biblical scholars we find that they don’t all agree.

Where he disagrees with other interpretations of particular images, he briefly mentions them but remains focused on the text throughout. Rather than being a book that stirs up fear, Revelation is instead a hopeful and even devotional book, focused on the certainty of God’s bringing his plans to completion, the futility of Satan and his plans, and the glory of the Lamb.

1-3 John
$69.99The Evangelical Exegetical Commentary series, written from an evangelical perspective, incorporates the latest in biblical scholarship. It combines historical, literary, and theological explanations with ideas for applying the Bible to everyday life.
In 1, 2, & 3 John, Gary Derickson explores how John communicates his pastoral concerns in his three epistles. Interacting with the most recent scholarship, Derickson focuses on John’s message and concerns rather than following the common theory of a Johannine school and secessionist polemic. He distinguishes pastoral and polemical elements within John’s message and recognizes John’s own assessment of his readers’ faith. By encouraging his readers to express God’s love through active involvement in one other’s lives, John shows that he is concerned not with how we possess eternal life but with how we express it as we relate to God.

Be Dynamic Acts 1-12
$16.99“The ministry of the Holy Spirit is not a luxury; it is an absolute necessity,” writes celebrated author and respected pastor Warren Wiersbe. In his first of two books covering Acts, Be Dynamic focuses on Peter’s ministry, mostly in Israel and centered in Jerusalem. Through explaining Luke’s record of the Gospel’s advancement and church expansion, Wiersbe opens the door to understanding the work of the church today.
Using hard-hitting quotes from recognized names like St. Augustine and John Bunyan, Wiersbe proves himself as a well-read author and gifted writer. The depth of his study is astounding, yet the accessibility of his text for every age group is evident as well. He proves what Luke intended-for Acts to be interpreted not as the apostles’ glorious acts, but as the life-changing acts of the Holy Spirit. The same Spirit lives in believers today, the same God calls followers to expand His church, and the same basic problems still arise within the church, but the same power available then is still available now to change the nations.

Be Hopeful 1 Peter
$16.99How to Win When Fiery Trials Come
The people who first read Peter’s epistle were familiar with suffering and persecution because of their loyalty to Christ. But Peter warned that something new would soon happen: a “fiery trial” of official persecution was about to begin. Peter wanted to tell them how they could be triumphant for the glory of God. We can expect to suffer for our faith, but we can also be hopeful. God’s grace is ours for the asking! Suffering in the will of God leads to the glory of God.
We can prepare for the best of God’s blessings rather than fear the worst of man’s hatred.

Be Patient Job
$16.99Why does God allow bad things to happen to good people? Warren W. Wiersbe tackles this question as he explores the life of Job in his commentary Be Patient. Through Job’s story, we are reminded of God’s sovereignty and encouraged to endure the suffering in our own lives.
In a single day, Job’s wealth was plundered, his ten children were killed, and his health was taken. His friends judged him and his wife did not stand by her man. But Job held on to his trust in Almighty God-a Father who is always good and always faithful. In addition to restoring his wealth and relationships, God gave Job a much greater blessing: a deeper knowledge of Himself and His ways.
Trust the pastor’s pastor, Warren W. Wiersbe, to guide readers into a better understanding of God’s sovereignty as they face trials in their own lives.

Be Comforted Isaiah
$16.99Where Do You Turn for Comfort When . . .
* Circumstances frighten you?
* Sin makes you feel guilty?
* All your plans fall apart?
* The future holds no hope?
For anyone who thinks that comfort is equivalent to pity and that it is only priceless to those who need an emotional crutch, best-selling author Warren Wiersbe applies the words of the prophet Isaiah to prove that God’s comfort is no such thing. The word comfort actually translates “to repent” in Hebrew; our English translation, however, adds another dimension to the word since it originated from two Latin words meaning “with strength.”
With definitions and insights like this, the “pastor of pastors” and phenomenal author Warren Wiersbe continues to enliven the Scriptures as he weaves the words of Isaiah with historical explanations and thought-provoking questions for every chapter, creating a study guide that can be used in personal Bible study or with a group. With over 4 million copies of his “Be” series alone in circulation, he is a man who has given his life to a deep examination of the Word of God, to communicating it in such a way that the masses see its relevance for today.Updated version. Scripture references are from the KJV and NIV. Discussion questions are included at the end of each chapter.“Comfort, comfort My people!” was the good news the Prophet Isaiah proclaimed to God’s people centuries ago, and his message still applies today. Isaiah not only reveals God’s prophetic plan for Israel, but also God’s power and peace for all who will trust Him.
In this practical study, Warren Wiersbe shows you how God can help you:
* Find strength and comfort in times of trial
* Conquer fear when your world is shaking
* Enjoy a rich worship experience withGod
* Experience God’s comfort and love“As one whom his mother comforts, so I will comfort you” is God’s promise (Isaiah 66:13).
Dr. Warren W. Wiersbe is best known as an author, pastor, and radio Bible teacher. He was for many years pastor of Chicago’s Moody Memorial Church and most recently served as General Director and Bible teacher for Back to the Bible. He has authored over 105 books, including the New Testament “BE” Series from Victor Books.

Be Complete Colossians (Reprinted)
$16.99We live in an age when everyone is trying to live richer, fuller lives. We’re told to buy this, try that, eat those, and say no to the rest, as if that’s all we need to do to make our lives complete.
Two thousand years ago, the church at Colossae faced similar challenges. The Apostle Paul wrote a letter outlining the only way we can live complete lives: Christ. What can we learn today from this ancient church?
Called by many scholars the “most profound letter Paul ever wrote,” Colossians warrants a careful, faithful study. In this short, but exciting letter, Paul makes the case for the supremacy of Christ in all things. Best selling author and teacher Warren Wiersbe calls your attention to Paul’s essential thoughts on living a complete life-Christ alone-in this easy-to-use commentary on Colossians.
