I was so excited to do this Bible study on learning to love like Jesus loved. I strive to be completely honest in my reviews, and I think when reviewing Bible studies it's important to note that I think everyone's experiences with a Bible study will differ greatly. What I don't care for, you may love and gain so much from, and vice versa. So in full transparency, here's what I did and didn't like about this particular study. While I did get several nuggets of truth from this study, I personally just could not get into it. I tried, I really did, and I wanted to love it, but I just felt like I didn’t get much from it. I think I was expecting it to be deeper than it was. I felt like it only scratched the surface, and I already knew a lot of the things I was reading. What I did love...I did love the format, I love Bible studies that have a workbook type format where you can answer questions about each day after you’ve read it directly in the book, and the illustrations were beautiful. I did also love how they explored the different words for love in the Bible and what they meant, that is something I love to do...exploring the meaning of words in the original languages. Also, the real life testimonies throughout the book were very good as well! Overall, while I did learn a few things, I just didn’t care for it. Maybe it was just that it wasn’t what I was expecting. Maybe it just wasn't what I needed at this time in my life, I’m not sure. However, you may love it; maybe it's something you need in your life right now, and it may speak volumes to you.
