How to Study Your Bible Description:

How to Study Your Bible review:
5 stars (This is What You've Been Looking For!) - I just completed reading this book and I can't get enough! If you are ready to roll up your sleves and study the truth of God's Word this is for you. It gives you pratical and sound skills for digging deep into the vast riches of God's word. I have studied for years but this is a systematic approach to Bible study and it allows you to first search out the scriptures for themsselves and then refer to other resources such as comentaries and word study guides as a source of enrichment rather than a foundation to you understanding and interpretation.
4 stars (Linda's comments) - I would just like to say that this book was recommended to me by a friend. After purchasing this book and reading its content, it has blessed my heart, mind, body and soul. I am understanding more of the parts of the bible and getting a better comprehensive outlook of God's Word. It is making the bible more comfortable for me to read. It is equipping me to be a better bible reader and interpreter. It's great!!!!
5 stars (Roll up your sleeves and dig into the Word!!) - I purchased this book because it was required reading for one of my Bible School courses. Prior to picking up this book, I never gave much thought to my approach to Bible study. Actually, I really didn't have much of a systematic approach. I mainly relied on study guides as my companion to Bible reading. All that changed after coming across this book. After being exposed to the inductive method of digging, questioning, color coding, linking key words and phrases and summarizing paragraph and chapter themes, I don't think that I can ever go back to my old approach to Bible study. Now, when I come across a passage, my inquisitive mind turns on and I "go to digging" for the meaning of the passage in context with the entire theme(s) of that book as well as the Bible as a whole. In addition to this obviously highly recommended book, I would like to suggest another one of Kay Arthur's, that really compliments this work. It's titled "God, Are You There?" In this book, she slowly takes you by the hand and teaches you how to apply each concept taught in the "How to Study . . ." book, by studying the Gospel of John.



If you are really interested in digging into the Word and finding out for yourself the full meaning of God's Word, please do not hesitate to get this book (as well as "God, Are You There?"--as a supplement).
