Many Christians think they can’t discover truths from God’s Word on their own, so they rely solely on “second-hand” Bible knowledge through sermons, books, and audio recordings. Irving Jensen’s Enjoy Your Bible is a confidence-builder, showing readers that they have the necessary tools for pursuing self-directed Bible study. It is also a motivator, as Jensen encourages his readers to explore God’s Word and shares his own enthusiasm for Bible study.
“The Bible is such a book as man could not have written if he would, and would not have written if he could” (Page 27)
“‘Were not our hearts burning within us while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?’” (Page 7)
“There is one overall theme: God’s salvation to sinful man through his Son, Jesus Christ” (Pages 19–20)
“absolute Word of the absolute God is absolute authority for life” (Page 27)
“God looks for in our hearts whenever we read the Bible:” (Page 42)
