I am so very honored and happy to have the opportunity to share with you this new release of a King James Version of God's Word. Thomas Nelson Publishing always does a wonderful job of producing Bibles and this edition is no exception. My review is not intended to focus on arguing the pros or cons of a KJV translation but is simply to present my review of this study Bible and utilization of it as a study Bible.

The beauty and timeless accuracy of the King James Version continues to ring true and bring joy to this reader. I enjoyed using this Know the Word Study Bible as the verse-by-verse feature allowed clarifying insights into a variety of facts and information tied to specific verses - material that is both new to me and as reminders of previously gleaned knowledge.

Throughout the Bible there were inserts with topical material. The Topic by Topic articles are indexed at the beginning of the Bible and give the page that particular material can be found on. Maps found at the back of the Bible are typical and as usual interesting for those who enjoy visualizing the location of Biblical events. I found the map showing the actual locations of events in the life of Christ particularly interesting as well as the missionary journeys of Paul.

This is not a comprehensive study Bible. I personally believe the intended reader audience is probably those relatively new to the study of God's Word. That is not to negate the inclusive study material that supports the Biblical text, it is simply that the material is not as in depth as that which a seasoned student of Scripture would desire. It certainly is not on a level that a pastor or theologian would desire for personal use. It is a study Bible in that it offers information to aid in understanding one's reading of Scripture and lead the reader into deeper study utilizing these materials as well as more comprehensive aides.

Do I recommend this KJV Know the Word Study Bible? Absolutely! I love the KJV. I encourage everyone to find a study Bible that suits their particular level of Biblical knowledge. I believe this Study Bible will benefit many users. A large contingency of Bible readers prefer the NIV or some other translation. I encourage students of The Word to delve into the KJV along with whatever version you normally prefer for comparative reading. On a further note: the Know the Word Study Bible also comes in the NKJV version.

Going through this study now, and it is rocking my world.  I've grown tired of sermons and bible studies that are focused on teaching me information about who God is, because they've rarely affected me personally.  Sure, maybe I can intellectually understand a different aspect of God, but those studies never changed me as a person.

But this study guide is focused the personal relationship between you and God.  It digs down into identifying what the Bible says about us while also encouraging us to write down what we believe about ourselves.  This guide helps to expose the areas where we are holding onto the lies of what the world is telling us about who we are, instead of believing God when he tells us our identity.  This guide also takes us through the process of renouncing those lies and coming into agreement with the truth of our identity in Christ.

This guide is amazing, and I can't wait for part 2.  I heartily recommend this to anyone who wants to grow in their relationship with Jesus.  You haven't experienced a bible study like this before, I guarantee you.

The book of Acts provides great encouragement for today's Christian. Erica Wiggenhorn has written a fabulous follow-up Bible Study to "An Unexplainable Life" that invites you to surrender to the leading of the Holy Spirit and take a spiritual journey. The study covers the second half of the book of Acts. It is Scripturally based and poses many thought provoking questions that challenge the reader to answer.  Also included are opportunities for personal reflection.  If you are looking for a Bible Study that you can sink your teeth into, then I would encourage to pick up a copy!

I received an advanced copy from Moody Publishers Women as a part of the early book launch team.

this study has been everything i hoped for and more. i bought it to share with a group of young women i do bible study with and instead, it ministered to me in a huge way. i fell 6 weeks ago and broke my arm. i've been stuck at home with not much i could do...except read and study. this study guide has been just what i needed! i have learned to distrust MY thought process first...and instead take decisions to god's word first! i have realized that we can go through life always naive and simple UNLESS we put god's truth to the test--and live it out, no matter the "evident" consequences. the study is full of meaty 'word studies' that really opened my eyes to the deeper meaning of the Proverbs. i long to be wise according to god's word and this study has been a true gem in helping me with the practical applications  as well as my heart issues.

There is a lesson a day for 6 weeks with a leaders guide included in case this is wanted for a small group study.  I definitely think that some accountability would be useful, as I am doing this alone, but I've asked God to be my accountability partner this time :)  Each lesson is short and to the point.  Although I quickly figured out where she was heading with the study, she did it nicely and nonjudgementally.

In the end it comes down to a good-better-best thing.  Is what I am doing (social media, reading, hobbies) the BEST use of my time?  Let's face it, I'm only getting one today.  Once it is gone, it is gone

This Bible study has opened my eyes to so many things that had become idols in my life.  Do you need to step back and take a look at what is REALLY important in your life?  I think it would do many of us a lot of good, I know it did me!

An in depth study that is easily understood.  To everyone I recommended this commentary;  they rave about it.  As a student of GOD's Word you will grow in appreciation of The Good News of The Gospel.  It should be in everyone's library.  It's absolutely Priceless.  Enjoy

Are you looking for a quick bible study to do every day? You've found it!! At 10 minutes a day I have been able to strengthen my faith & find those few precious moments to spend with God. I can truly say that this study has helped me through a very difficult time right now. God promises to never leave not forsake us, and it's hard to remember that when you're not talking to Him every day. Even when life is chaotic, you can find 10 minutes. Let God strengthen you and fill you with His Spirit. Blessings!

Im honored to have had the opportunity to be part of the proof reading team of this book.  I can honestly, without hesitation, say it is an amazing collection of your thoughts and great work. The Lord, as always, is working through you to compel those who need Salvation and Gods Joy to come to the Lord through this book! It is an awesome tool to bring Christians closer to God and a more joyful life! A masterpiece to further the building of The Kingdom! Congratulations!! Its a book that is hard to put down!
So happy to see it available in print, I will not only purchase one for myself but extras for those who need encouraging, who want to grow closer to the Lord and even those who do not know the Lord. Everyone who reads this book will, without a doubt, be encouraged in some way!
As an avid reader of the amazing writings of  E.W. Kenyon and his ability to encourage and teach how to live for God and how amazing God is, your book is equally as strong in relating how to be connected with God and how the love of God fulfills our every need! I hope you are already working on your next book!

Live or Die is a fantastic study on the book of Philippians. It is a practical, challenging, and personal study which leaves the reader empowered to live boldly for Christ. Gerhardt gives you the tools to take this study as deep as you want to take it, making it a great read & study for young & mature Christians alike.  Live or Die is an easy read, but I do warn you it is not a shallow read. It will challenge you to step outside of your comfort zone to live all out no matter your circumstances.

If you feel like something in your spiritual life is stagnant or missing, this study can help you out of the quagmire by connecting you to scripture, its historical context, deep reflection, and prayer.

If you are looking for a book that is fun to read, yet challenges you to be more, this book is for you.  If you are looking for a personal Bible study on Philippians, this book is for you.  If you are looking for a great book to read with friends, or your next small group study, this book is for you.  I think you get my point, this book is for you.

Kathy Howard has done an excellent job in writing this Bible study.  As Director of Women's Ministry of Kelview Heights Baptist Church in Midland, Texas,  we have decided to use this particular study with our Women of Purpose class.  Women of Purpose is a single mom's class and they are excited about studying about the basic principles of the Christian life.  I'm excited Kathy Howard has put together such a wonderful study.

I am taking a class through Precepts Ministries (Kay Arthur organization). So far i has been an excellent study. I'm learning so much about being strong in the Lord.

Great Bible study for teaching. Love the flow. Starts with simply Who is God? in a general sense, and takes you through the Bible as God reveals more about Himself, leading the student to the ultimate revelation of the Might God in Christ, and what He did for us and how we should respond to His work to have assurance of our salvation! Themes of faith and obedience are very strongly integrated as well, encouraging and challenging student to a deeper walk with God. Its no wonder the study is called Bringing Men to Jesus. Good stuff, and a great tool for anyone hoping to bring men, women, friends, family, etc. to Jesus, the Shepherd and Bishop of our souls!
