There are commentaries and there are books on preaching – but very few books that combine elements of both to enable the preacher or Bible teacher to prepare a series on specific sections of Scripture. This series gives the Bible teacher suitable tools to understand the context of Biblical books; doctrinal themes; the methods of interpretation; the key interpretation points and how to communicate that message for the hearer.Whilst very useful for preachers, this book is also aimed at equipping small group study leaders, youth workers and other Bible teachers. The books are purposefully practical. Section One contains ‘navigation’ material to enable you to access the text of Romans. Section 2 works systematically through a suggested preaching or Bible study series. Preaching outlines and Bible study questions are included for each passage.

Christopher Ash is Writer-in-Residence at Tyndale House, Cambridge. From 2004 to 2015 he was Director of the Proclamation Trust Cornhill Training Course in London. He splits his time between preaching, speaking and writing, and has written a number of books, including 'The Priority of Preaching', 'Hearing the Spirit', 'Bible Delight: Psalm 119 for the Bible teacher and Bible hearer' and 'Teaching Psalms Vol. 1 & 2'. He and his wife Carolyn are members of Cambridge Presbyterian Church.

Personally, I found the structure of each chapter extremely helpful. After analysing and explaining the meaning of the text, the author moves from text to teaching. In this section the basic theme and aim are clarified and pointers to application made. This is perhaps what lifts these volumes beyond the limits of a normal commentary. It is also what Bible teachers and study leaders will find most attractive about them. Applying the ancient text to the modern listener isn't always an easy thing to do. Under pressure to seem practical and relevant, preachers are often tempted to the sin of 'false application' by which the instructions they give are forced onto, rather than derived out of, the text.
