Book Description
The evangelical pastor, Jon Courson, founded the Applegate Christian Fellowship in Southern Oregon. What started as a home fellowship of a few is now the home church for over 10,000 people. In 2002, he left Oregon to assist Pastor Chuck Smith at the 25,000-member Calvary Chapel in Costa Mesa, California.
Courson has amassed more than 1,500 teachings in an expositional style. Jon Courson's Application Commentary will combine a verse-by-verse teaching of every paragraph of Scripture with practical topical studies throughout.
This New Testament commentary is a unique blend of information and inspiration presented in a way unique to Jon Courson.
With more than 1,200 Calvary Chapels in the U.S. and 2,500 worldwide, Jon Courson delivers with fresh, new insights into the Bible.
Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
I bought this commentary as a result of my CC pastor recommending it as a place to find 'nuggets' of blessing. This is a fine one-volume commentary on the New Testament for the beginning Bible student as well as those looking for some added insights on certain passages. This is an 'application' commentary, as the name implies, and not an in-depth technical word by word or verse by verse commentary. It is designed to be read at a more devotional level for those interesting in applying the verses to their daily lives. Jon does not cover each verse in detail and sometimes lumps a few verses together and provides a brief synopsis. This would be my only real complaint. Not all of the 'problem' verses are addressed. I was kind of looking for a bit more, hence the 3- star rating. But if you are new to studying the New Testament, I would recommend this as a fine compliment to another one-volume commentary, The Believer's Bible Commentary by William MacDonald. With these two hand-in-hand, I believe you'll get a pretty accurate understanding of the verse, added insight and be edified at the same time. Recommended to those looking to 'flesh-out' other commentaries they may have.
