Book Description, Modified from Goodreads:
We live in a world of scarcity. We say, “I don’t have enough time… maybe when we have more money… if only I had a little more help…” But Scripture says if we have Jesus, we have enough. Discover the joy and freedom that abounds when we know deep in our hearts that Jesus truly is enough.
In this 6-week study of Colossians, Asheritah Ciuciu leads readers to discover the life-altering importance of Jesus’ sufficiency and sovereignty. And you don’t need hours a day to enjoy this Bible Study. Each day’s study contains three paths: a bite-size morsel of truth to chew on throughout your busy day, a dig-deep guide to maximizing the “meat” you’re getting out of your bible study, and a service challenge for making theory a reality. You can enjoy this study with all three courses or pick the one that works best for you.
My Review:
He is Enough is a 6-week Bible study of Colossians. Each week started with a brief introduction and then five days of study. The author worked her way verse-by-verse through Colossians. For each day, she started with some commentary and has you create a prayer based off a verse, read the day's verses, and write down your observations. She then asked reading comprehension questions about what a word might mean or which words were repeated or how a passage was similar to another verse. She then asked you to think about what the verses meant to the original audience and what the main idea is. She also has you come up with a personal application that is specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time bound. She ended by prompting you to worship God with a specific song or activity.
Basically, she teaches how to do an in-depth Bible study, including teaching you to go to online sources to do word studies or look up what a commentary might say about a verse. But she did include insights and commentary in the book, so she doesn't just leave it up to you to come up with the answers. I'd recommend this study, especially to anyone who wants to learn how to do similar Bible study on their own.
If you've read this book, what do you think about it? I'd be honored if you wrote your own opinion of the book in the comments.
