Luke: That You May Know the Truth (Hughes, R. Kent. Preaching the Word.)

Summary: An exciting, practical treatment of Luke's Gospel
Review: So many Bible commentaries are dry, dull and difficult. You may find the information you're looking for, but you have to wade through an enormous amount of theological verbiage just to find the one statement or thought that could help you to understand a verse.

This commentary (and the other volumes in this series, for that matter) is refreshingly different. R. Kent Hughes has a wonderful ability of teaching the Bible in a practical way that in no way waters down the passage, and this comes through in nearly every page of this book. Whether you're a pastor looking for sermon help, or you're a Bible study leader looking for fresh insights, or a Sunday school teaching looking for stimulating thoughts, this is the book (and series) for you. I have heard it said that R. Kent Hughes' commentaries on the books of the Bible is to the modern day church what Matthew Henry and Barclay's commentaries were to previous generations, and I agree. In fact, I think they are better.
