Publisher's summary

Are you getting the spiritual nourishment you need?

We have all experienced times when we have not eaten a balanced diet or have eaten too many sweets. We feel sick, light-headed, and occasionally depressed, or we become irritable and edgy. It's the body's way of letting us know that it's lacking sufficient nourishment.

Optimal health requires optimal nutrition. The same is true spiritually speaking. Without sufficient and regular biblical nutrition, our inner life begins to suffer the consequences. We become shallow and selfish, more demanding and less gentle, and quick to react impatiently, rashly, and angrily. These are telltale signs of inner malnutrition.

In Searching the Scriptures, respected Bible teacher Charles Swindoll shows us how to dig deep into Scripture and uncover its profound truths for our lives. He outlines the principles of Bible study that will help you understand God's word, apply it, and communicate it clearly to those around you.

Too many people try to go it alone, without a guide for this life and the next. Swindoll explains how we can fix our own spiritual meals and then invites us to feast on nourishing truths we can discover in God's word.

inspiring

this book was chock full of information. my approach and understanding of Bible reading will be richer. im so glad and happy that i chose this to listen to . after listening to the first 3 chapters i decided to purchase the hard copy . the narrator was was great as it made listening more enjoyable. nothing worse than listening to a reading with horrible voice.

You'll Need time to sit & listen w/a Bible.

I didn't particularly care for the consistent comparison of making a good meal & the Bible. This Audio book seems to be more for someone who can sit to listen with a Bible along with them & study like in school. Ones referred to verses constantly. I understand this but I can't just sit & listen & look up scriptures (I listen to audio books while working). If you're a theology student, this is a great book (or get a regular book. Narrator is a bit "flat".

You'll need a pen and paper!

There is much in this book. I will have to re-read it, but this time I will take notes. It is a great book.
