5.0 out of 5 stars Explores topics and asks questions to bring the text alive, March 17, 2003

This review is from: John (LifeChange) (Paperback)

I use this book in a Bible study through a Calvary Chapel. This book is really great. The questions provoke you to dig deeper into the text than you normally would. There are explanation portions that give you historical context, customs, grammer, and the like, all to help explain what a passage means. In addition to helping you get "Bible smart", the book also provokes questions that really make you reflect and search your heart to draw you closer to Jesus.

This review is from: John (LifeChange) (Paperback)

My bible study is currently working their way through this amazing little book. I am already in awe of the impact it has had - the lessons learned, the in depth studies, the conversations started. I would definitely recommend this study of the book of John because it delves deep into the book, it asks pertinent and thought provoking questions, it brings John to a level where it personally effects your life and your actions. I hope to use other books in this series in order to better understand and look with clarity and purpose at the Bible. If you are looking for a guide to the book of John, this is it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Study Guide!, January 15, 2001

Nicole Williams (Dallas, TX USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Shepherd's Notes: John (Paperback)

Of all the study guides I have used, this one is the most comprehensive. It finds the Greek and Hebrew meanings for you, it does the research, it breaks up the book of John in uderstandable and flowing sections. I recommend this along with any of the Shepherd's Notes guides through the Bible.
