Son of God: A Bible Study for Women on the Book of Mark, Volume 1

Son of God #1

by Keri Folmar

This Bible study workbook is to assist you in studying the first half of the Gospel of Mark in an inductive way. Inductive study is reading the passage in context and asking questions of the text with the purpose of deriving the meaning and significance from the text itself. We do this automatically every day when we read the newspaper, blogs, or even recipes. When we study the Bible inductively we are after the author's original intent; i.e., what the author meant when he wrote the passage to his original audience. In this workbook, you will figure out the meaning by answering a series of questions about the text, paying close attention to the words and context of the passage. After figuring out the meaning of the text, there will be questions to help you apply it to your life.

My favorite format for a guided study of a book of the Bible, and honestly one of the few I’ve ever truly enjoyed. I have enjoyed Jen Wilkin’s and Jackie Hill Perry’s study formats, but they can be require much more time and effort, which is not always a bad thing. But Folmar’s approach gets you directly and immediately into the text. There’s no unnecessary fluff. She adds commentary only when she considers it necessary to clarify an obscure point. Otherwise, this study is mostly just a little spiral bound book of questions that clearly guide you through observation, interpretation, and application of each day’s text. Perfect for preparing my heart to receive preaching on Mark each week at church. Looking forward to the second half of Mark.
