Effective Bible Teaching


Book Description

Why does Bible study flourish in some churches and small groups and not in others? In this updated edition of a trusted classic, two Christian education specialists provide readers with the knowledge and methods needed to effectively communicate the message of the Bible. The book offers concrete guidance for mastering a biblical text, interpreting it, and applying its relevance to life. Its methods, which have been field-tested for twenty-five years, help pastors, teachers, and ministry students improve their classroom skills. Readers will learn how to develop the "big idea" of a passage and allow the text itself to suggest creative teaching methods. This new edition has been updated throughout and explores the changed landscape of Bible study over the past two decades. Readable and interdisciplinary in approach, this book will help a new generation of Bible students teach in a purposeful and unified way.

Methods and Principles of Bible Research

This text, among with Interpreting the Scriptures, is especially designed for use in "The Key of Knowledge" seminars authored and conducted by Kevin J. Conner. Numerous students graduate from various Theological Colleges but many fail to have the necessary "keys" and "How To's" for their own personal Bible Study.This text lists some of the major "Tools for Research" plus some of the major "Methods of Research". They include Word, Character, Place, Textual, Topical, Passage and Book Studies. The Seminars especially follow a two fold approach of "teaching they keys" (instruction) and "using the keys" (practical workshop by the student). Here the student finds the joy of discovery for themselves, each using and developing these methods according to their distinctive calling in God and in the Body of Christ. The book is designed in such a way that a diligent student may set their own pace as they work through the text assignments.
