Dig Deeper into Exodus

Reviews / Votes

"With a light-hearted and personal touch, the authors provide an engaging study guide to the book of Exodus. Encouraging contemporary readers to grapple with this extraordinary account of God's rescue of exploited migrant workers, they offer practical advice on how best to discern the ever-relevant message of this important Old Testament book. For anyone keen to discover God's word afresh, here is an excellent starting point." -- T. D. Alexander, Senior Lecturer in Biblical Studies, Union Theological College, Belfast "Dig Deeper into Mark is gold! It's a resource that will introduce even the newest Bible reader to thinking deeply about the message of the Bible. In using a kit of Bible reading tools to the book of Exodus, it demonstrates how a careful handling of the Bible is far more compelling than the shortcuts. I'm looking forward to introducing it to all our Bible study programmes." -- Nick Duke, Pastor, Campus Church, University of Canterbury, New Zealand "For those Christians who find the Old Testament to be a complete and unfathomable mystery (and there are many of them!), here is the book you need to read to get back into the first and major part of God's word! Focusing on the book of Exodus, Andrew and Richard not only unpack the text clearly, but also explain the tools need to understand the Old Testament and to apply it to twenty-first-century life. This is a great book for everyone wanting to 'dig deep' into the Scriptures in order to see how it speaks to their lives today." -- Dr Jamie Grant, Vice Principal, Highland Theological College UHI "Dig Deeper into Exodus takes the 'tools of the Bible-handling trade' out of the toolbox and shows us how to put them to effective use in the book of Exodus. Succinct, accessible, practical and always text-driven, the authors help the Bible teacher plot a straight course through this foundational Bible book. Dig Deeper into Exodus is an excellent resource that should be on every church bookstall and in the hand of every small group leader." -- Reuben Hunter, Assistant Minister, IPC Ealing "When I decided to study Exodus with our students this year, I was left scratching my head for a student (not to mention student-worker) friendly resource, until I came across Dig Deeper into Exodus. Its genius is that it doesn't just spoon-feed you the 'right' answers, but step by step shows you how - with humility, prayer and a little hard work - you can find the answers for yourself and experience the joy of hearing God speak through this fantastic part of the Bible. The 'student-friendly' style, stretching study questions and numerous worked examples - including some of the authors' false turns to learn from - will give students the tools and the confidence to mine the depths not just of Exodus but the rest of the Bible too." -- Ben Mandley, Associate Minsiter, Inspire St James Clerkenwell "Exodus is central to our understanding and experience of salvation, and Dig Deeper into Exodus shows us how we can mine the treasure from the book. The writing is engaging and lively, and introduces us to the God of the Exodus with great enthusiasm. Read this book to develop your confidence in handling God's word - but more than that, read this book to be blown away by the God who rescues his people from slavery." -- Anna McCracken works for a charity, and is a member of Christ Church "At first glance, you may think this is a curious book: not a commentary, yet containing some great insights into the book of Exodus; not a devotional tool, yet a robust and challenging exposition of the chapters; not a book about technique, yet by applying the Dig Deeper tools it provides a model of how the Bible should be read and understood; not a homiletic manual, yet gold for a preacher or Bible study leader in almost any setting." -- Adrian Reynolds, Director of National Ministries, FIEC
