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

We are using this study guide for a group Bible study. We find the background information especially helpful, and it allows us an in-depth study without having to consult other sources of information all the time. We especially like the "additional" questions in the margins of the pages. These help us to think more deeply about the specific passages and apply them to our lives. Some of the numbered questions can be a bit repetitive. Many of us wish the "For the Group" section was at the beginning of the lessons, instead of the end. Apparently there is no leaders' guide for this series. Overall, we are impressed with the study guide, and have used other volumes in this series for previous studies (Hebrews, Matthew, Acts).
