Recommended Resources

If you are interested in building a library of resources for study, these are resources that I recommend. Asterisks signify particularly favorite resources of mine.

If you want to start a collection today, I recommend the ESV Study Bible, the Believer’s Bible Commentary, and the Holman Illustrated Bible Handbook and Dictionary.
