The General Epistles continue to be relatively ignored, to the church's detriment. This book seeks to remedy that neglect and does so in a winsome and very helpful fashion. Written for a broader audience, it . . . will make an excellent resource for personal and group Bible study.

Professor of Biblical and Systematic Theology, Emeritus, Westminster Theological Seminary
Crowe has a way of gently disentangling thorny interpretative issues and exposing the spiritual fruit for believers to harvest. This is what 'practical theology' ought to be.
-Charles E. Hill,
John R. Richardson Professor of New Testament and Early Christianity, Reformed Theological Seminary, Orlando
We ignore these letters to our peril, for they have an urgent message for the church today. . . . [Everyone] interested in the message of the Scriptures will benefit from this theologically faithful and pastorally applicable work.
-Thomas R. Schreiner,
James Buchanan Harrison Professor of New Testament Interpretation and Associate Dean, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
Peter, John, James, Jude - important early-church leaders who knew Jesus and wrote letters to churches. Why do we neglect them? . . . In a survey that is terse and gripping, Brandon Crowe shows how, in turbulent times not unlike ours, God furnished direction for his people and light for the world.
-Robert W. Yarbrough,
Professor of New Testament, Covenant Theological Seminary
