Description

An approachable, comprehensive guide to studying and understanding the Bible.

"This is the best book on understanding and interpreting the Bible I've ever seen. Practical, easy to understand, scholarly but accessible, and filled with insights and tools for a lifetime of knowing God through His Word." ?Chip Ingram, teaching pastor of Living on the Edge and author of Culture Shock: A Biblical Response to Today's Most Divisive Issues

Many people admire and even revere the Bible, but they simply do not understand what they read, much less how to study Scripture. Yet they wish they could. In this insightful and alternately amusing guide, Professor Mark Yarbrough shows how easy and gratifying it is to unlock the hidden truths of God's Word and to discover a world where reading the Bible doesn't just satisfy our curiosity, but changes our life.

To do this, the reader will step into the seminary classroom and observe the practical principles -- the tricks of the trade -- for becoming a more effective student of the Bible. But Yarbrough has made sure that his writing style and general approach will be appealing to both academic students and those involved in lay-level Bible study.

Real life is whacky and in-your-face. Studying Scripture should be too.

"A MUST-READ book for this generation!... Mark has absolutely nailed a long-needed exhortation to dig into The Book, but also the tools for effective digging." ?Dr. Dennis Rainey, CEO and president, FamilyLife

"Following in the footsteps of Howard Hendricks, Mark Yarbrough's insightful, relevant, and many times humorous book is a Kingdom tool for comprehending -- and applying -- God's great Word. You will be challenged, and better equipped, to be a lifelong student of Scripture. I highly recommend this work for your church, school, ministry, or personal study." ?Tony Evans, senior pastor of the Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship and president of The Urban Alternative/DESC>
