Description: It’s happening everywhere. People all over the nation—all over the world—are gathering in churches, school dormitories, and neighborhoods, drawn together to study the most influential book in human history: God’s Word, The Bible. Any Christian who recognizes the importance of the Bible agrees that it is crucial to study it regularly—but how do you do that? Is it the same thing as reading through it? Or is there a set of characteristics that define true, effective Bible study and set it apart from reading any other book?

Here Kathleen Nielson presents both a celebration of Bible study and an exploration of what it truly is. Writing as a fellow interested believer, but also as a specialist in literature, she explains what Bible study is by first considering what the Bible itself is, and how that affects the way we should approach it. If you long to elevate your study of the Bible above “What the verses mean to me”; if you want to understand God’s Word, instead of taking a speaker or commentator’s words at face value; this book will be an invaluable resource toward getting you on the path toward blessed, meaningful, real Bible study.

"Dissatisfied with leaving Bible study to the professionals while the rest of us are mere recipients of their work, Kathleen Nielson wants all Christians to be involved in thoughtful and faithful Bible study -- and tells us how to do it. This is a well-written and wonderfully sane book that deserves the widest circulation."
--D. A. Carson, Research Professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School

”After leading us through masterful studies of several books of the Bible, Kathleen Nielson now gives us an even greater gift: teaching us how she does it! Her literary expertise and love of the Bible that we have seen time and time again are put to their fullest use here, as Dr. Nielson shows us how to view the Bible as both the crucial (and approachable) Word of God and as a literary masterpiece to be immersed in and savored. As do all good teachers, she leads by example, making us excited to dive in and study the Bible by allowing her own excitement to infuse every page. And on a personal note, my wife tells me that Kathleen’s material is as trustworthy as it comes. If you want to study the Bible - and, more importantly, know how to study it - I can recommend no better teacher than Kathleen Nielson, and no better resource than this book.”
--R. Kent Hughes, Senior Pastor Emeritus, College Church in Wheaton

"Kathleen Nielson’s book belongs to a very elite circle of books: it covers all the right topics in exactly the right order! As Kathleen pursues the successive topics, a momentum builds up that is akin to the unfolding of the plot line of a novel. The subject of the book has been thoroughly researched, and the personal statements by people who teach the Bible are a welcome touch. The book cannot be better than it is. For people who teach the Bible—or who aspire to teach it--this book will be the 'gold standard' for knowing how to 'do it right.'”
--Leland Ryken, Professor of English, Wheaton College
