Christian Bible Study for my Husband?

He became a Christian as a child and has heard all the bible stories but never experienced a mature relationship with God. Any suggestions?

Christian Bible Study for my Husband?
I suggest that he go to Dr. Charles Stanley's website and read through the Bible studies there. Dr. Stanley is a faithful teacher of Scripture and is very personable, which helps in the learning process. Your husband may also be interested in watching Dr. Stanley's weekly tv sermon; the show is called "In Touch."





There are a few godly preachers out there, but there are many, many more that are teaching garbage. If your husband is very young in his faith, make sure that a mature Christian reviews the study materials before he begins reading. Stay away from the Watchtower website, as was recommended by one of the answerers -- it's the website for the Jehovah's Witnesses, which is a non-Christian cult. I would also caution you against giving him 'The Purpose Driven Life,' since the pastor who wrote this book isn't doctrinally orthodox.





I've given a few trustworthy websites below.
Reply:Much of the Bible is how you intemperate it. It is what it means to a particular person. There is no set meaning for all of the Bible. Sure, there are some commonly accepted interpretations of the major passages, but the over all, deepest meaning is personal. If he is having trouble, he can try a Bible Study class. Almost any church has some form of Bible study outside of the actual service (which can also help).





In the end, a mature relationship with God can only be reached on an individual level. He can receive help and guidance from other people, but he must ultimately reach the relationship himself.
Reply:I have the Rainbow Study Bible, New International Version. I bought it on eBay after getting quite a few recommendations. Mine has a burgundy leatherette cover though. It can be bought on Amazon too.





I consider it the best going, but am anxious to see the rest of the answers.

Reply:Better to leave him go about his own devices.





He doesn't need a study. If he wants to read the bible, and is ready to take it in, he will.


If he does not want to, or is not open to taking it in, a study could do more damage than good.





The bottom line is that when people are pushed, they can push back further in retaliation.
Reply:He should spend time in the Word daily reading his Bible, praying and spending time alone with God, and be at church learning His Word. That's the only way to build a relationship with God.





Also check out some books at www.calvarychapel.org or listen to the radio teachings.
Reply:Here's a website that teaches the meaning of every verse of every Book of the Bible: http://www.soniclight.com/constable/note...





He can start with something like the Book of John, and read along with the Bible study. Enjoy :)
Reply:I suggest Andrew Wommack Ministries on the Internet. Perry Stone's Manna-Fest Ministries, J.R. Church and Gary Stearman's Prophecy in the News on the Internet.





This is a good variety of Bible believing men.
Reply:For a beginner, Try "Experiencing God" by Henry Blackaby. Its a six week study, 5 days a week. Take about 30-45min each day.
Reply:I don't know of a Bible study exactly but I think the Purpose Driven life focuses on this relationship and interaction with God.
Reply:Hello, Glad you ask.

Both you and your husband can learn and have a personal relationship with God.





Wonderful!! John 17:3





Have a great day!
Reply:Does he want a closer relationship? Or do you want him to? If he wants one he'll search and God will find him. If he doesn't...leave him alone.
