Forty Ways to Study the Bible!

As a preacher and an avid reader I am always on the lookout for good reading materials and study guides, both for my personal growth and as recommended tools for those to whom I preach. So when I heard of Andy Deane’s new book, Learn to Study the Bible (40 Bible Study Methods) I was intrigued. I checked the web page and found it a very pleasant visit. The site give the visitor a chance to see the table of contents, view a video presentation, and even read a sample chapter of the book itself!

It appears to me that Deane has provided a little something for everyone, whether a new student of the Bible or someone familiar with the sacred writings but looking for a new approach. And all for a very affordable price of $13.99!

Helping Teens Understand

Tonight in our Bible class with the junior high students of the congregation I will be studying the entrance of the Israelites into the Promised Land and the utter destruction they were supposed to execute against the Canaanites. The killing of everything that breathed as commanded in Deuteronomy 20 goes against the modern sensibilities of the teens. I am sure it will be atopic we have to deal with tonight!
