Excellent Discipleship Resource


If there's one thing I'm passionate about it's getting believers into serious Bible study. There simply is no other way to grow as a Christian and become a true disciple. Author Keri Wyatt Kent understands this great truth and has written several books to help in this pursuit. Deeper into the Word: Old Testament is one of them (Deeper into the Word: New Testament is also available, and they would make a great set!). Here's a little bit about this excellent resource:

Translators have done their best to render the words of the Bible into English, but capturing the nuances of the ancient languages is an inexact science. Kent gives readers an opportunity to investigate the roots and biblical context of the words within the Word.

Deeper into the Word: Old Testament is a fascinating devotional, but it can also be used as an accessible reference tool, as it explores one hundred of the most important words of the Old Testament. Kent unpacks each word's Hebrew origins, shows how it is used in the Bible, and offers insights into its significance in our lives.

Consider getting a copy of this book (and its companion book on the New Testament) for yourself and also for someone else you'd like to see grow in the Word. It's perhaps one of the greatest gifts you can give to anyone. Here's the link to order:

Have a little "Simple Compassion"!



Want to make a difference where you live/work/play? Really? Then you need to get a copy of Simple Compassion: Devotions to Make a Difference in Your Neighborhood and Your World by Keri Wyatt Kent. This lovely book is more than just a great personal devotional (though it is that!), but it is also a fantastic resource for helping us "put feet to our faith" wherever we go. If you're committed to being part of the solution instead of the problem, of changing the world one heart and life at a time, then this is the book for you! (Zondervan Publishers)
