Resource Review: For the Love of God Volume 2

"For the Love of God" Volume 2 is a fantastic read. I found this book easy to read and it accompanied my bible reading well. I strongly recommend this book to those who would like to enrich their reading with some short but easily accessible devolution's by Don Carson. Below is a short blurb about the book:

As with Volume 1, Volume 2 of Don Carson's reworking of McCheyne's Bible reading system includes reflections on each day's scripture passages. Read through the New Testament and Psalms twice and Old Testament once in a year.

Here is a brief summary about the author:
  • D. A. Carson (Ph.D., Cambridge University) is research professor of New Testament at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in Deerfield, Illinois, and he has also served as a pastor. His areas of expertise include biblical theology, the historical Jesus, postmodernism, pluralism, Greek grammar, Johannine theology, Pauline theology, and questions of suffering and evil.
  • Dr. Carson has written or edited more than 45 books, including The Sermon on the Mount; Exegetical Fallacies; Matthew (Revised Expistor's Bible Commentary), New Testament Commentary Survey, 6th ed.
