An Accessible Verse-by-Verse Commentary of 1 Peter
Choosing a Bible commentary can be a daunting prospect. With complex terms and dense exposition, many are tailored to scholarly theologians rather than everyday believers. And for those selecting resources in order to lead a small-group Bible study, speak at a women’s gathering, or simply grow in their knowledge of God’s Word, it can be hard to know where to start.
With warmth and clarity, Lydia Brownback makes in-depth Bible study accessible without diminishing the richness of God’s Word. Verse-by-verse, Brownback guides readers through the full ESV text of 1 Peter to aid their personal study, group discussion, teaching, and outreach. In this epistle, Peter calls believers to hold fast to Christ, who strengthens them with grace and fills them with hope amid hardship. Each volume in the Conversational Commentary series includes an engaging introduction, historical and cultural background, key themes, and suggestions for deeper study.
- Comprehensive Study Companion: Formatted for personal study, small-group discussions, or as a research tool for Bible teaching and outreach
- Conversational Language: Written in a clear, engaging way that doesn’t sacrifice theological depth
- By Women, for Women: Written by Lydia Brownback, author of the Flourish Bible Study series
- Helpful Study Tools: Includes an introduction, an overview of the text's historical context and themes, verse-by-verse explanations, and suggestions for further study
- Affordable Format: Designed as a paperback to be accessible for a wide audience

“This is the series I’ve been waiting for! These Conversational Commentaries are for every Bible study leader, small group facilitator, Bible teacher, and Bible study participant.

“The Conversational Commentaries series is a trusted companion for individual study or teacher preparation. I appreciate each author’s careful consideration of the original writer, document, and audience while keeping the language and format refreshingly accessible. These handy reference tools will be great additions to any theological library to return to repeatedly.”

“For those looking for an accessible and theologically robust commentary series, start here. These commentaries are informed, responsible, and God glorifying.”
Benjamin L. Gladd, Executive Director, Carson Center for Theological Renewal; series editor, Essential Studies in Biblical Theology
“These commentaries are indeed ‘conversational,’ but they are not without great theological depth and exegetical rigor. I’m so grateful for these dear sisters in Christ—for their biblical wisdom, love for God’s word and God’s people, and desire to help fellow women of God dig into the glorious riches of Scripture. Many thanks to Lydia Brownback and Megan Hill for their editing of these immensely valuable resources!”
Jon Nielson, Founding Pastor, Christ Presbyterian Church, Wheaton, Illinois
