Riassunto

How do we draw practical applications from the Bible? Reading the Bible should be like gazing into a mirror-we should look for a true reflection of ourselves and note the changes that need to be made in our lives, but how is this done?

Walk begins with a helpful explanation of the role that the Holy Spirit plays in this process. Then it teaches a simple-to-use four step method for enabling Bible readers to become Bible doers. This method is made memorable with the acronymCOMA. For every passage you read, you will learn how to: discover its (c)ontext, make(o)bservations about what's important in the text, determine God's (m)essagefrom one of those observations, and craft an (a)pplication of that message for your everyday life.

Perfect for believers at any stage and those discipling others, Walk is a wonderful guide for those seeking to follow Jesus, honor God, and walk in the way of the Word.

In keeping with Christ Community Church's mission to make passionate disciples of Jesus Christ, Jim loves to mentor others in prayer and the study of God's Word. With that goal in mind, he has authored Prayer Coach: For All Who Want to Get Off the Bench and Onto the Praying Field (2008) and the four-book Bible Savvy series (2013).Jim and his wife, Sue, have been married for more than thirty years and have three grown children. Jim enjoys biking, hiking and kayaking for recreation. He loves to hang out in Chicago, where he can watch the Cubs play (no better park than Wrigley) or listen to the world-class Symphony Orchestra. The local Starbucks also sees a lot of Jim, accompanied by books (mostly biographies) or friends.
