Did you ever wish you knew more about the Bible? Practically every believer has expressed such a desire at one time or another. Even many non-Christians have wished they knew more of the basic facts of the Bible narrative. 
There is only one way to gain knowledge of anything: personal study. There is no instant way to gain knowledge of the Bible. It takes time, determination, and a practical system of study. 
Many people have started Bible-reading programs only to abandon them shortly afterward. Why? There was no systematic plan to the effort. There was no sense of accomplishment. There was no mastery of the information. 
This book is a very practical guide to the study of your personal copy of the Bible. No particular version is required for the study, and there is nothing for you to secure beyond the Bible you already have. The important thing is to get the dust off your Bible and begin studying it systematically. 
Background materials, outlines, and summaries of crucial sections of the Word of God are provided in these notes. There is room on each page for your own personal study notes which you may want to add. The approach of this book is suited to personal study or class use. It is systematic and carries you through the entire Bible in a book-by-book progression. You will see the progressive unfolding of the will of God as it is revealed in Scripture. 
Most important of all, you will experience personal growth and joy as your life is enriched and transformed by the power of God's Word.

Bound for the promised land: Walking in the faith footsteps of father Abraham

Love, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness, Self-Control, Patience, Peace, Joy 
These facets of Christian virtue and character grow simultaneously in the life of the Spirit-controlled person, says Rubel Shelly. He goes on to discuss these virtues from that perspective. 
This a fresh, timely, and thoughtful look at Galatians 5:22-23. Christians are given an unmistakenable challenge to "cooperate with God's Spirit to allow our lives to bear beautiful fruit to his glory..."

21st Century Christian, Inc.

This book looks at the Beatitudes in terms of their most practical application to modern life. In non-technical language, the depths of these statements are explored for the inquiring student. 
"The Beatitudes" summarize the fundamental qualities of heart and life which are necessary for one to live successfully before God and man. They show the royal route to happiness for those who would walk with the King! 
This book answers the question of every human heart: How may I be happy? The answer comes in terms of humility, hunger and thirst for righteousness, mercy shown to others, and the other attributes of happy living which are revealed by God in the Beatitudes. The book is not an exercise in self-help and popular psychology. It is a sensible presentation of biblical truth about the real meaning of life.
