From the back cover... In his best settling book, Gentle and Lowly, Dane Ortlund takes readers into the depths of Christ's very heart for sinners. Focusing on Jesus's words that he is "gentle and lowly in heart," Ortlund dives deep into Bible passages that speak of who he most deeply is, encouraging readers with the affections of Christ for his people.
Designed to be used in conjunction with the book, Gentle and Lowly Study Guide helps readers reflect further on this wondrous Biblical reality. This accessible resource features discussion questions organized into 10 lessons, with each lesson covering 2-3 chapters from the book. Perfect for small groups and individuals alike, the Gentle and Lowly Study Guide can also be used with the Gentle and Lowly Video Study.

Digested this one slowly and thoughtfully. I think everyone who considers themselves a Christian should read this. It was a little redundant at points but gave me fresh perspective on Christ’s heart for us.
I’m so glad I got this to use alongside my second reading of Gentle and Lowly. It is a perfect companion to the book and does not require the use of the videos (I didn’t have them). The questions are not too cheesy or overly simplistic, and I appreciated the way they helped me think through and apply the contents of each chapter. I used the book combo as a devotional, a chapter a day. Such a rich and encouraging look into the heart of Christ!
