Choices - Schuppe, James

. .

Résumé :
With the abundance of Study Bibles, commentaries, and explanations of Scripture, the question remains: How can we genuinely know what we believe? It's easy to rely on external teachers for understanding, but what do we do when their interpretations don't align with our core convictions? Find another teacher?

Sommaire:
we have to ask the questions and find the answers in the words. A good place to begin is with this little epistle of James, just 108 verses and 2265 words in the New King James Version. That's the purpose of this workbook---to help you ask the questions and find the answers yourself in God's Word. I provide an opening blurb to set up the context in each of the 15 sections in James. Then I supply questions that should stir your contemplation. Then I provide organization with fill-in-the-blank exercises that are keyed to my book Choices: from deception to blessing.
