Excellence in simplicity

I heard once from a teacher that bible study is not for sissies. However Bible Study is also not for Theological students. This presentation teaches the lay person the correct way to study God’s word and parse it correctly.

For those who want a solid foundation.

Been fifty years of studying the Bible, having started with a "live" introduction to this book. Howie is/was a man of God!

Book is good. Easy and simple to start learning how to study God's Word. Workbook is ok... I think i would only use a few examples to get started, but im more in favor of teaching by going through a real bible study.... Verse by verse, alongside and learning by example and practice
