Bible Study for Beginners: Unlocking the Essentials with Beginner-Friendly and Easy-to-Understand Explanations (Curious Histories Collection) Paperback – August 19, 2024

I gave it as a gift, and the person loved it!

I’ve read the Bible but felt I just wasn’t getting it! This book has been easy to read and I’ve been able to follow it more clearly. I recommend for the beginners.

Great study book and I love it. It breaks the Bible down to understanding

In discussing Genesis, the book brings in understanding as a key to obedience. Absolute balony. This leaves God solely responsible for the fall. He didn't explain things well. This is a common enlightenment myth. I am 72 years old. When I was in high school, the educational establishment announced they were going to end smoking through education. Total failure. Drug education has been a total failure. Why? Any place with a significant drug problem everybody knows someone who has died from drugs. 50 years ago, I personally knew 2 people in my Montana High School with 720 total students who died from drugs. I knew several, one especially, who irreversibly damaged their brains. What saved me? I was afraid my dad would kill me. Fear is a much more effective motivator than information. We live in the stupidest culture ever (only 17% of Chicago students can read, depending on you area 40% of students have diagnosed mental conditions), and we have all, including me, have drunk deeply from the well of stupidity. I remember once my wife tossing her Bible while reading the gospels admitting she was angered by Christ's words. I truly believe, if you don't hit times when your natural response is that's stupid, You are not paying attention, and you will never become truly wise. Lots of people who have read the bible cover to cover and still think their professors are smarter than God. I have spent years learning how stupid I and my education were. I am slowly learning to be wise.You might think my rating should not be so high. But the book really is packed with information that really can help you understand the text. The problem I am referencing is a cultural problem that is almost impossible to escape in any modern book.We tend to ignore what is actually said and fit a tame God into our life.I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

It’s a study book. It is what I expected from the description

This book marks new territory for this author, as it is its first foray into a work dedicated to the study of the Christian Bible. This work includes research, engaging writing, and an accessible format, making for an excellent reading experience for everyone involved.

Easy to follow and understand. This is a great resource for beginning to understand the Bible.

This is a perfect introduction to the Bible suitable for any age. Easy to read with clear insightful guidance, and it really teaches you how to look deeper into scripture so you can study it and apply it to your life. I would recommend this to anyone looking to strengthen their faith, or as a thoughtful holiday gift.
