This month, the Luther Seminary Bookstore recommends “John” (Fortress Biblical Preaching Commentaries) by Karoline Lewis.
Online sellers say, “With attention to both liturgical interpretation and exegetical analysis, Lewis provides a unique preaching resource that will build biblical literacy by assisting both preachers and listeners in understanding John’s Gospel as a whole, not just a collection of vaguely related stories. … Readers, preachers and their parishioners will have a deeper appreciation of the book’s unique interpretation of the Christ event and how that influences their approach to living the Christian faith in today’s world.”
