Daniel (Everyday Bible Commentary series)

Daniel (Everyday Bible Commentary series) by [Whitcomb, John C.]I enjoy reading these commentaries. They cover information in a way that I may not have seen before.
This commentary is written by John Whitcomb and is written in a conservative view. However, this did not sway my view one way or the other because it is written from a historical view of Daniel's time and then helped me see what is said to come.
After I review these books my husband will often take them to help him in his Bible study group that  he leads but it is also helpful to the student, such as my self.
This book takes the reader through the book of Daniel verse-by-verse. Which helps to obtain a better view than one that covers the entire book in general terms.
I was given this book by Moody Publishing in exchange for my honest review.

Acts: Everyday Bible Commentary

I was given this book by Moody Publishing in exchange for an honest review.
God's ways are amazing. Our pastor announced we were going to be studying the book of Acts. I had just requested and received this book a day or two before. This led my husband and I too take our time and use this as a devotional. It opened discussions and help us to see answers to some of our questions from this Bible book.
The book is broken down into 19 parts and within each chapter it is broken down further to help in the exploration. I have been amazed.
I highly recommend this book to others who would like to look into the book of Acts further.

Book Review: Adventuring Through The Bible

This is a great resource for studying the Bible. Each of the books are given an overview and an outline. There is also a timeline which follows some of the more important events in the Bible. There are questions to use for further thought or discussion and ways to use each of the books in a person's life. Included are a number of different reading plans to help fit a person's need.

I was given this book by NetGalley and Discovery House Publishing in exchange for my honest review.



Adventuring Through the Bible is an excellent comprehensive guide to the Bible. 

Signs of the times: the end and a new beginning--Revelation. 

I love every aspect of this book. It is a great resource for studying the Bible, and gaining deeper understanding of the Bible. You can choose to use this book alongside your Bible while studying or you read his description and snapshot of the book you want to study before reading your Bible each day. However you choose to use it, this book is great resource for all. For me, I read about the book I want to study before beginning. This helps me to understand the context of the Scripture better.
This guide is a great tool and like a snapshot of each book of the Bible. It gives you a brief overview and great analogies of each book
The author is very thorough in his explanation of the Bible, book by book. The expanded edition which I have in an ebook format is loaded with maps and charts, discussion questions, life application and sidebars, as well as some beautiful color photographs of the Holy Land. 
I love how the author describe how the old and new testament compliment each other. 
The book has different Bible reading plans, that many readers will find very helpful if they are interested in reading the Bible in one year. 
For a reader-friendly guide to the Bible, the average Bible reader will find Adventuring Through the Bible a useful addition to his or her library. 
I feel this is a good resource for anyone wanting to learn about the bible, or just wanting to discover a new way to study it. 
I would recommend this to libraries, churches, Pastors and individuals. 
Buying this book will be a great addition and resource to your library and will come handy whenever you need it. 
I received this book from the publisher through NETGALLERY for this review.
This review also appears Goodreads, Barnes and Nobles and Christian Books.
