Matthew: A Bible Study With Someone Like You
Ebooks To Download

Call it a Bible study on the book of Matthew. Call it a Bible commentary. Or call it a daily devotional. Out of a four-year reading and studying of the entire Bible comes these honest and provocative thoughts on the book of Matthew: the first book in the New Testament. It is not written by a Bible scholar, nor a minister, a missionary, or even a teacher. No, it is written by a person you can relate to even more. It is written by a person who is someone like you.

This book is quite clever, the author tries to involve the wide community to join him in quest to understand the book of Matthew. He teaches us that in most cases we have misread what is said about the Lord and the savior. He tries to grasp an understanding for himself, but he still requested some assistance by being interactive with the reader.

The questions raised by the author transport readers to a fresh new viewpoint/slant on the messages within Matthew. Even as a minister, i have found the bible to be a great sedative and at many times totally boring. This writer brings a user-friendly dynamic to hearing the message. Things stuck out from reading this book that never seemed significant before. Jesus being baptized by John while John sought the reverse. The craftiness of the devil.The writer also brings his humor and personality to understanding the old ideas from a current perspective. The importance of asking is clear when looking at Peter's lack of attentiveness while walking on water and then his crying out to Jesus for help. A fresh sensitivity toward divorce also emerges and helps to ease the way for all.I highly recommend this book to all who want to move closer to God but have been put off by strict doctrines that seem rigid. This book will share a perspective that will help you to revisit the possibilities for personal peace. May all who read this message and/or the book be blessed AND SO IT IS!

As I began to read through Kurt Olson's commentary on Matthew, I was immediately struck by the simplistic profundity by which he engages Scripture. Keep in mind this book is not scholarly in nature yet it is scholarly in its depth of thought. This means that Kurt exegeses Scripture with a view to the layman without sacrificing when needed the engagement of what could be termed more scholarly material. He walks through the entire book of Matthew one chapter at a time, devoting a chapter in this book to the events that Matthew records in his gospel. This is an easy to read book on Matthew. Kurt Olson does a great job of providing relevant cultural background information in a way that brings the text to life on academic and emotional levels.

This book is the type of book that I am thankful for. This is the type of book that will be able to open people's lives in more ways then you can imagine. The Bible is a great reference and is the best book in history, and I love that this book adds details which are insightful and appreciated. I myself am a Christian and fully appreciate this work. I recommend to any religious person or any person who simply would like to learn more about Christianity.

This is a very nicely written book for anyone that would like to know what is written in the bible, but might find the length and language intimidating.It is a sort of abridged and translated into modern day language bible.If you might be interested in what the bible has to say, but were always a little intimidated by the origial, (even in your own language), they don't hesitate to buy this book.

On top of being a great daily bible study, I found this book has helped me get a deeper and much better understanding of Matthew. I learned more by just opening the book and reading through it than I ever have on my own or with a study group. I am also looking forward to purchasing other books in this series as my studies progress.

I think this is a good go to for someone reading Matthew. It's short commentary for each chapter and gets to the point! Also it helps piece together other parts that may have been hard for some to understand like me.

This is actually a great book. The bible is extremely hard to understand for me, and the author managed to recap each of Matthew’s chapter in a very easily understood, direct, and simple way. I recommend anyone who hasn’t yet read the Bible to read this before because this book clearly is an instant attention grabber that will help you understand the Bible better.
