This is 1 of a 2 Vol. Set. I've found these books to be incredible for goal-oriented study of the Bible. It gives you a planner for every day of the week. The best part is all the pages in the workbooks are perforated for tearing out so you can make copies and share w/family and friends. Can even make a game out of it, timing yourself/others on doing a sheet of questions. The best part is ALL the answers are in the Bible, and each question usually gives you an idea as of where to find the answers. I've been studying the Bible for many years. This is the first time I've found a workbook that can be used w/any Christian Religion. Its teaches just whats IN the Bible, no other additional teachings/practices. I recommend it to anyone who wants a fun, challenging way of reading the Bible from beginning to end. It even has Maps included, asking you to trace, for ex. Abrahams or the Israelites journey.....Gives you direct commands to LEARN or MEMORIZE a specific thing.Just as if you were taking a class. Actually the book(s) were written for weekly ADULT BIBLE CLASSES. Yes very happy with the both of them. Thanks Again......

So once I opened these books I realize they are the republishing so to speak of book from 60 years ago, so I should not be too surprised at their lack of depth.

My hope was to find workbooks that I could sink my teeth into. However, I find that I've found base level workbooks. Onse that seem to gloss over some books of the bible with a simple summary while having outlines and questions for others. Then I look at a book like the Psalms and it got all of 1.5 pages, I'm flabbergasted to a degree over the briefness and condensation of a book with over 100 chapters covering a wide range of topics.

So then I head to the New Testament with hopes that since it is shorter maybe there is more meat found in its workbook. And there is the meat for the gospel and again brief condensation for every other book.

Honestly, I want to say a waste of my time, but then again with children in my house. It is not a waste but I can pass along for them to use in their studies of the bible. I dare say it would also be sufficient for the new believer who would want to lay a foundation of the bible before more in-depth studying.

{FYI: I received these books from the publisher in exchange for my honest opinion.}

This is a great product for those that are interested in knowledge of the Bible. I highly recommend it to everyone.

When I received an email asking if I would be interested in reviewing the Bible Workbook Series by Catherine B. Walker, I replied with an ecstatic, "Yes!" What I didn't know at the time is that these resources were actually written in 1943-44 which, to me, makes them more. In current conservative evangelical circles, there often seems to be a stigma toward women attending seminary and I imagine it was even greater during the time Catherine wrote these workbooks. I was impressed to learn that Catherine possessed a Doctor of Religious Education degree from Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. For the sake of this review, I researched who Catherine was and found out via her biography that she lived to be 100. From what I learned about her, her love for Jesus, and her love for people, it is patent that she ran long and hard for the Lord and I hope to emulate her in that. Although Catherine is no longer living, it is so sweet to her legacy live on in many ways, including the publication of these Bible Workbooks! Catherine took The Great Commission seriously and these workbooks are evidence of that. The Bible Workbook Volume 1 Old Testament was intended to be a high school course but is a helpful tool for anyone desiring to grow in their knowledge of the Old Testament. Since I have read the Bible chronologically, it was exciting to see that the workbook examines the Old Testament in the same way. Before diving into the Old Testament, this workbook begins with a brief overview of the entire Bible which creates a helpful foundation for the entire study. The questions are simple and I love that they point readers to the Bible. One fun aspect of this book is the maps which have a vintage look. The Bible Workbook Volume 2 new Testament is composed in the same format as the Volume 1 Workbook. I love that this volume contains a page explaining the Intertestamental Period and contains an outline of the life of Christ. On page 5, Catherine explained, "Christ is the theme and central character fo the Old Testament as well as the New Testament. The Old Testament continually promises 'Christ will come.' The New Testament says 'Christ has come.'" I really enjoyed reading this simple explanation emphasizing the importance of why we need to know all of Scripture. The Bible Workbook Series Volume 1 and 2 complement each other really well. Both workbooks contain 3 holes in the spine making them an easy addition to a binder. The pages in both workbooks are also perforated making them easy to submit as assignments to be graded. I'm really thankful for these workbooks and for Catherine's heart to help people know who God is according His word. These workbooks help readers understand the Bible comprehensively but in a simple way and they are affordable. I highly recommend these workbooks to anyone who is looking to grow in their knowledge of the Bible. I received the Bible Workbook Series compliments of Moody Publishers in exchange for my honest review.

This is one of the best study guide/workbooks I have had which is really helping me to come closer to the Lord. Thanks!!
