Lydia Brownback, coeditor of the new Conversational Commentaries series, tells us the intentions behind the series and how the editors and authors hope it will equip women in the church.

Conversational Commentaries are designed for women leading small-group Bible studies, preparing to speak at gatherings, or seeking to deepen their understanding of God’s Word. These accessible and affordable resources present the full ESV text of a specific book of the Bible, accompanied by warm, nonacademic explanations. Each volume includes an engaging introduction, historical and cultural context, key themes, and suggestions for further study. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of the book and its role in the overarching story of Scripture, ultimately growing in their knowledge of God and drawing closer to him.
