Sweeter Than Chocolate: Developing a Healthy Addiction to God's Word

Rate this book
"How sweet your words taste to me; they are sweeter than honey" (Psalm 119:103).

Greetings from Montana! I’m Christy Bower and I want to help you find creative ways to engage and enjoy the Bible. The Bible doesn’t have to be a boring book. Anyone can engage the Bible in meaningful ways.

The methods that resonate with you may not be the same methods someone else might prefer. Each of us prefers either left-brained logical methods or right-brained creative methods. Generally, those who teach the Bible emphasize how to study the Bible using systematic methods. That can be a real yawn for folks who want to dabble, create, and discover meaning.

In Sweeter Than Chocolate, you will learn:
•how and when to read the Bible using a freestyle Bible reading guide
•how to study the Bible
•how to practice BIBLICAL meditation
•how to understand the major story arc of the Bible in a quick Bible history overview

The Living Word will change your life if you let it. Let’s indulge ourselves because, unlike chocolate, there’s no such thing as overindulging in God’s Word.

I received an e-version of this book through Goodreads Giveaways. This is my honest review.
Christy Bower uses the analogy of chocolate to the ways we should savor and desire the Word of God. She gives a fly-over view of the whole Bible and includes a chapter on helpful resources. This book would be good for a new believer, someone wanting to begin studying the Bible on their own, or ones who feel the Bible is difficult.

I loved this book, like the way she compared things to chocolate.

It gave me more to think about and ways to read the bible.

I am going to take her advise to using other materials, to understand it better.

A big thank you to Christy Bower,
