Book Description
Many introductions to the New Testament are either too simple, not providing all the necessary information, or overly complicated and written at a level out of the reach of an average person with no seminary training. This work is neither. The author is thorough, providing over 200 footnotes for further study and additional historical information, but at a level that is understandable, and in a concise manner.

In this work the author addresses issues of:

• authorship
• date
• location of writing
• recipients
• message statement of the book

He also addresses deeper subjects, such as:

• the synoptic "problem"
• the Northern and Southern Galatia theories
• Justification in the book of James

He provides the historical background to the following biblical cities:

• Corinth
• Ephesus
• Philippi
• Colossae
• Thessalonica 

He also describes the various interpretive approaches to some of the more controversial books, while also providing his assessment: 

• 1 John
• Hebrews
• James
• Revelation

Every chapter ends with a carefully constructed outline to that particular book of the New Testament just introduced. In the appendix, the author provides links to, and descriptions of, several free online Bible study resources that are invaluable to the student of the Word. 

Also includes links to a FREE online course (first half is already available, the remainder to be complete soon) by the author, also entitled "Introducing the New Testament Books"
