First of all, I would like to extend
a heartfelt “Thank you” to Sue Edwards and her publisher for sending me a copy
of "Revelation: Discovering Life for Today and Eternity" to review for them. I am truly grateful for this
generosity. I really appreciate the time, effort and expense it takes to make a
reviewer copy available to me.
“Revelation:
Discovering Life for Today and Eternity” is a Discover Together Bible Study by
Sue Edwards. The nine lessons cover the first three and last two chapters of
the book of Revelation, concentrating on the letters to the churches as
representatives of churches today. Each
lesson contains a QR Code that, when you scan it with your smart phone, will
lead you to a video teaching segment with Sue Edwards. You can also view these videos online. The website also contains leader guides for
the Bible studies that are valuable assets if you are leading a small group
study of the material.
The
format of the study is extremely flexible.
You can simply answer the general study questions to complete the study
on a basic level or you can choose to also complete the Dig Deeper exercises
that will intensify your study. Each
week also has a suggested Scripture for memorization. The study is laid out in such a way that the
student answers questions to grasp the details of what Christ’s praise and
criticism to each church really means.
I’ve
studied the book of Revelation several times, but I am floored by what I have
learned from this study! At first I was
disappointed that we wouldn’t be studying the entire book, but quickly realized
that this Bible study is just the right size and focusing on just the right
material. The questions are
thought-provoking and the material has deep life applications. I highly recommend it for personal or small
group study.
Beginning
September 11, 2013, I will be blogging extensively on each week of this
study. I’d love it if you’d stop by my
blog then so we can study Revelation together.
