A Home-Spun Style that is Still Popular Decades After the Author's Death

I enjoy these radio transcription books of J. Vernon McGee's famous 5-year study of the Bible in 20-minute episodes. McGee is like a friendly Southern grandfather type who is very peaceful to listen to, (or read along with), while he tries to grow your faith. These radio episodes are still played daily, more than 20 years after McGee's death in the 1980s. I don't necessarily agree with every single comment that he makes, but he is interesting to consider, and I usually agree with 95% or more of what he says about the Bible. Where we differ is pretty much NOT anything foundational, just peripheral things that I think are not worth arguing too hard over. If I really disagreed with McGee, I wouldn't read him at all, but McGee has been a favorite of mine ever since I became a Christian in 1998. John MacArthur's NASB Bible, or his NKJV Bible, are better researched and more scholarly, but MacArthur only goes as in-depth in his New Testament commentary books, while McGee does both the complete Old and New Testaments in these in-depth books of his radio broadcasts.
