What They’re Saying

The Standard Lesson Commentary is very easy to use. Having been in church my whole life, I’m just now getting a good understanding of the Scriptures.

Kandrea VeasleyParticipant, Union Chapel Baptist Church, TX

Standard Lesson Commentary has been particularly helpful in teaching new believers in our Bible study. Many of our students have stated that they have learned more from the Bible than they ever have before in their lives!

Attendees are much more engaged in class discussions and discuss how they are experiencing the effects of applying the Word in their lives!
