    About this ebook

    What is your favorite kind of book to read? Most of us find great satisfaction in reading—whether by snuggling down with a great biography, savoring a collection of poetry, or enjoying a mind-bending mystery novel. But have you ever considered that what you’re going to read affects how you read it?

    Understanding the different genres or writing styles of the Bible prepares us to get more out of the Scripture every time we read. The Bible is literature. When we know something about the background, purpose, and writing style, we can learn to appreciate God’s message all that much more!

    In this unique study, women will explore the genres of writing in the Old and New Testaments, such as law, narrative history, wisdom writings, and epistles. Books of the Bible that may have seemed hard to read or disconnected from our modern world will suddenly come alive in a whole new way. Along the way, we will begin to lay hold of depth and delight of God’s Word—not just as ancient writings, but as a book that is living, active, and more relevant to our daily lives than we ever imagined.

    Features include:

    • 12 sessions of interactive Bible study
    • Perfect for individual or group study
    • Tips for leading a great group included

      AT THE GROCERY STORE, I searched for a few healthy snack options. On a sale rack, I found crunchy peapod snacks. They sounded healthier than potato chips, with a similar crunch-salt value, so I grabbed them. After getting home I tasted them. Yuck. Wh
