Living with the Book: Matthew Philip Charlton

We should spend our entire Christian life searching the Scriptures to learn about God and His will for our lives. Throughout our lifetime, we may study a book of the Bible many times. We will also hear messages and read commentaries or other books that help us better understand God?s Word. Most of us take the insights we receive on various occasions, make a quick note, and promptly lose them.

Living with the Book provides a permanent place to keep a record of what you learn when you study these New Testament letters. Add to your journal over the years, each time you return to this gospel, hear another message, or read a book that provides new insight into these Scriptures.

Living with the Book provides insight into the times and the context in which God?s Word was first delivered. They will also challenge you to consider how the passages you are studying apply to your life today. As you read through a book of the Bible, spend time meditating on His words. Pray about them. Write down what God is telling you from these passages and how you have been responding.
