1 & 2 Timothy and Titus (N. T. Wright for Everyone Bible Study Guides)

Product DescriptionWhen you need to know how to do something, a manual is the best place to start. 1 2 Timothy and Tit's might be called "the Teacher's Manual," because so much of what they contain is about the kind of teaching that Christian leaders should--and shouldn't--be giving.

It is designed to help you understand Scripture in fresh ways under the guidance of one of the world's leading New Testament scholars. Thoughtful questions, prayer suggestions, and useful background and cultural information all guide you or a group more deeply into God's Word. Discover how you can participate more fully in God's kingdom.Review"Tom Wright is a gift to the church today.
