Book Review: Titus for You by Tim Chester

I recently spent time in 1 & 2 Timothy as well as the book of Titus which are known as the Pastoral Epistles. Many commentaries have been written about these three books but very rarely will you see on just for the two letters to Timothy or Titus by themselves. I am delighted that Tim Chester has released a commentary on Titus titled, Titus For You.

I must confessed when I first saw the book, I thought it was written by Tim Keller because he has done similar commentaries on Romans 1-7, Galatians, and Judges. Titus For You is written in the same fashion as Keller's three books. This book goes through each verse of Titus as Chester tells his readers why Paul wrote this letter and what it teaches.

The book is written in a user-friendly format that even a young believer can pick up and read without feeling like it is above his/her head. There are discussion questions at the end of each chapter which can be used for personal devotional reading or group Bible study. Chester tackles church leadership as the book of Titus mentions it. He also addresses being part of Christ's body and living in godliness.

This book is great for all Christian to use in whatever form they can whether for their personal Bible reading time or one-on-one discipleship. Pastors will benefit from this book as they preach through the book of Titus.

Thanks Good Book Company for letting me review this book.
