A Preacher’s Guide is not an overview. Instead, these books focus on one book of the Bible or on one portion of one book of the Bible. For instance, the Preacher’s Guide on Genesis focuses on Genesis 1-4. The Preacher’s Guides are intended to be like a trusted pastor sitting next to you as you read God’s Word. The goal is to teach what the text is teaching in each verse. The Preacher’s Guides also bring the reader to other passages in the Bible teaching the same themes. The notes can be a great help to pastors preparing sermons or Sunday School teachers preparing lessons.

A Preacher’s Guide to the book of Genesis (1-4)
 
It is very important that every Christian pastor or teacher understands the first chapters of the Bible. These chapters prepare the reader for everything that follows in the rest of the Bible. This book includes the complete text of Genesis 1-4 and extensive study notes on key verses in these chapters. The study notes focus on Moses’s intentions. Why did he write the things he wrote in these chapters? Why did he use the words he used? What is the main point of the text? Also, the study notes bring the reader to other places in the Bible that are connected to these important verses. This study begins with a section titled, “25 things to keep in mind when reading Genesis 1-4.”
