Author Kurt Olson is not a Bible scholar, he is not a Preacher and he is not even a teacher. He is Someone Like YOU. He writes in a style like you talk and think. Too many Bible Study writers assume that Everyone knows and understands the Bible #1. Reading the Bible without help can be Intimidating #2. Biblical scholars often don't speak in simple language #3. People will often neglect reading the Bible because they don't understand it A BIBLE STUDY WITH SOMEONE LIKE YOU is a series that IS easily understood and IS enjoyable to read and Has Good Reviews. Let's Take A Look At The Topics To Be Covered in this study on the Bible book "Matthew" 1) The Birth of Jesus Christ 2) Jesus Tempted by Satan 3) The 12 Disciples of Christ 4) Jesus' Many Teachings and Miracles 5) The Death and Resurrection of Jesus and So Much More
Kurt has been a Christian since teenage years. He took four years to journal his opinions on every book of the Bible. And from those journals he is turning each book of the Bible into a short Kindle eBook. So far he has published the book of Matthew as his first book, then Genesis, James, Philippians and Acts. His first four books are also available in Amazon's Audio books.
By trade Kurt is a Ultrasound technician with over twenty two years in the field. (of which he plans to write about also) He has been married to his wife Brenda for twenty six years. His daughter Brittany is in college and his son Cameron is traveling in India where he has been teaching English to underprivileged children.
I appreciated Mr Olson's take on the book of Matthew. This book was easy to read and easier to get caught up in the gospel that we've studied many time over. It's like looking at a beautiful picture from a different angle.
I think this is a good go to for someone reading Matthew. It's short commentary for each chapter and gets to the point! Also it helps piece together other parts that may have been hard for some to understand like me.
