Personal Application Workbook

How People Grow reveals why all growth is spiritual growth and how you can grow in ways you never thought possible. Our desire to grow runs deep. Yet the issues in our lives and relationships that we wish would change often stay the same, even with our best efforts at spiritual growth. What does it take to experience increasing strength and depth in our spiritual walk, our marriages and family lives and friendships, our personal development--in everything life is about? And how can we help others move into growth that is profound and lasting? Unpacking the practical and passionate theology that forms the backbone of their counseling, Drs. Henry Cloud and John Townsend shatter popular misconceptions about how God operates to reveal how growth really happens. You'll discover: What the essential processes are that make people grow. How those processes fit into a biblical understanding of spiritual growth and theology. How spiritual growth and real-life issues are one and the same. What the responsibilities are of pastors, counselors, and others who assist people in growing What your own responsibilities are in your personal growth. Shining focused light on the great doctrines and themes of Christianity, How People Grow helps you understand the Bible in a way that will help you head with confidence down the high road of growth in Christ. Workbook also available.

BIBLICAL STUDIES - When a Bible Student or Seminarian begins to lay the basic foundations of the Old and New Testament, one of the first assignments is to provide a book-by-book summary of each biblical book. This is a basic exercise, but like every good foundation, it's one that can't be skipped. An understanding of the larger contexts and contents of each biblical book not only aids in understanding of individual passages, but also reinforces our understanding of all of Scripture. PERSONAL NOTES - This workbook is designed for you to work through each of the books of the Bible and produce your own personal book summaries. You have the chance to reflect on authorship, theological themes, as well as provide a basic outline of each book of the Bible. As you work through the Bible, you'll be able to trace similar theological themes and whole Bible connections. SIMPLE WORKBOOK - What you'll find within this book is a simple template that will allow you to work through each of the book fo the Bible in a way that deepens your understanding. Also, as you fill up this book you will grow in your understanding of each book of the Bible, and the larger message of the Bible as a whole. ADDITIONAL RESOURCES - In the back of this book I've included two appendices. The first provides my recommended commentaries on each book of the Bible. The second provides my recommended books with regards to Old Testament Introductions, New Testament Introductions, Biblical Theology, and Hermeneutics. This is a really simple workbook, and it's one that will require you to put in a lot of work. But, the outcome will be a deeper understanding of God, specific books of the Bible, and the whole Bible.

This book contains twenty-two individual 'Scripture Studies.' Each study focuses on one general area of study. These studies enable individuals to do in-depth, topical studies of the Bible. They are also invaluable to the Bible study teacher preparing lessons for Sunday School or a home Bible study. They can be used for group studies as well. The range of topics covered in the different studies is broad, from what the Bible teaches about itself to what the Bible teaches about divorce and remarriage. Included in each study are hundreds of Scripture references so there will be no lack of material from which to begin your studies. So if you're an individual looking for an aid to improve for your own personal Bible studies or a Bible study teacher or home group leader looking for help in preparing lessons, this book will be of great benefit. The sources for the viewpoints promoted in these Scripture Studies are wide and varied. The ideas are taken from commentaries, study Bibles, theology books, books of various kinds, and most importantly, this writer's own personal study of the Scriptures. The sources for the opposing views presented are publications of groups that promote the ideas and personal conversations this writer has had with members of such groups and adherents to the views. Every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the Scripture references in these studies. But with the thousands of references presented, it is likely that a few 'typos' have crept in. If the reader comes across a reference that does not make 'sense' in the context presented, just go onto the next one. There are always plenty of verses listed for each point. It is my hope and prayer that God uses these Scripture Studies to help the reader to: '... grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory both now and forever. Amen' (2 Peter 3:18).
