How A Book about The Book Can Make All The Difference

I’m reflecting on how God has provided gifted Bible teachers to help me understand the Bible.

One of those teachers – Gordon Fee – died last month. He co-wrote (with Douglas Stuart) two books that have had a tremendous impact on the way I read the Bible and what I look for to better comprehend it:

How to Read the Bible for All Its Worth
How to Read the Bible Book by Book

I return to these books again and again.

 

Thank you, Dr. Fee, for writing these books. And thank you, Lord, for giving us this gifted teacher of your Word.

You can check out this blog post that explains further how these two books changed my approach to reading and understanding Scripture.

There have been a handful of other books about The Book that have had a significant effect on me.

The Gospel According to Jesus
, by John MacArthur
God Is the Gospel, by John Piper
The Holiness of God, by R.C. Sproul
Women of the Word, by Jen Wilkin
Basic Christianity, by John Stott

Looking for help in your comprehension of Scripture? The eight books listed above are a great place to start.
