Let's Study 1 Peter

by William W. Harrell

Peter's great themes of grace and salvation in Christ, godly living, and comfort in suffering, echo down the ages to the present day. William Harrell's fresh and lively treatment of 1 Peter shows that these themes are as relevant to the church today as they were in the first century. We, too, need to hear of the greatness of the salvation accomplished by Christ and to heed the call to consecrated and orderly living, to endurance in suffering, and to vigilant service.

As with the earlier volumes in this series, the value of the exposition is enhanced by the Group Study Guide which follows.

I only made use of it once or twice in this particular study through 1 Peter, but I've taught 1 Peter in a Sunday School class before where we used this study guide as the basis for the class; it is very solid, and a profitable supplement to any study through the text. Some folks from Dove Mountain Church asked me about doing additional study in 1 Peter through the week, and I pointed them to this book first.

This is a very biblical and easily approachable study on 1 Peter. It would be great for devotional use or small group use. In my opinion the commentary is great but the study questions in the back are just okay, but (in all fairness) I’m very picky when it comes to discussion questions in books or Bible Studies, so take that with a grain of salt. This is a very solid book and I’m thankful to have read it.
