Book Review - Learn to Study the Bible by Andy Deane

Nothing could be worse than turning the living Bible into a boring and confusing tome. Yet, that is exactly what happens to so many, simply because they haven't been given the essential tools necessary to unlock the rich character of God’s Word for themselves.

As "people of the Book," we Christians have received a privilege that truly is above all else. And yet, so often I hear believers expressing frustration in their attempts to study and understand God’s Word. Either they tell me they don't know how to get started, or they get bogged down in boring and monotonous study routines. They don’t know the basics of being able to observe, interpret, and apply biblical principles to their own lives.

That is why I am so excited about this book, Learn to Study the Bible. Andy Deane has provided the church with an exceptional answer to this problem by giving the reader all the tools needed to grow in their understanding and love for God and his Word. In this one resource, Andy has done an amazingly thorough job of compiling a wide variety of Bible study methods and describing them in a way that is useful, concise, and practical. Frankly, I am surprised that no one has done this before.

I look forward to hearing how God uses this book in the lives of his children.
