Learn to Study the Bible-Book Review

I like to mix it up when I am studying my Bible. If you were to look in my study journal you would see that I use several different methods of studying the Bible. I recently came across a book that teaches 40 different Bible study methods. That book is "Learn to Study the Bible" by Pastor Andy Deane. Deane, a youth pastor, was trying to teach a group of middle schoolers how to study God's Word. Unfortunately, instead of inspiring them to dig into the Bible, they were left confused and frustrated. That incident was the springboard for Deane's research into different Bible study methods and the result is this book.

Some of the 40 different methods included in "Learn to Study the Bible" are:

• The Timothy Method
• One at a Time
• Verse by Verse Charting
• Chapter Overview
• Biblical Topics
• Word Studies
• 30 Days Each
• Heart Monitor

Each chapter contains step-by-step directions for a different method. I suggest you try each method at least once. Some methods will click better with you than others, make note of them in your book so that you can use them again in the future. After the "how-to" section of each chapter there is a handwritten example of journal pages written using that particular method. This is an awesome bonus especially for visual learners who will see how to set up their journal pages.

"Learn to Study the Bible" is a very good tool for advancing your study of God's Word. You can get your copy of the book from Learn to Study the Bible (40 Bible Study Methods).
The book costs only $13.99 plus shipping, you can break that down to only $0.35 a Bible study method!
