Okay, I know there are those who don't even know who NT Wright is. And if you are reading this review you may have some idea of his writings. I am totally biased and came to know NT through my seminary studies. With much more theological depth NT reads and writes more in the vein of CS Lewis and though I'm not sure NT would call himself a Christian apologist he is certainly a strong advocate of traditional orthodox theology. Furthermore, NT has an amazing grasp on the Kingdom, Jesus and the entire Bible perspective from Genesis to Revelation. This collection will really blow you away and is a must own for pastors, teachers or deeper thinking Christian thinkers and writers.

NT Wright does an amazing job translating the New Testament scriptures in his For Everyone series, taking the well-known scriptures and presenting them as new and exciting news! Wright presents a passage and follows up with clarification of the history, events and culture of that day and age (which presents a much clearer picture of the whole story than has ever been told), while challenging anyone who reads this series to look at their own lives and relate the scripture accordingly. While the series is a simple read for everyone, Wright has not dumbed down the gospel in any way. If you are someone who has tried to read the Bible, but has a hard time getting into it, read the For Everyone series.
