It will give you an overview of Scripture to familiarize yourself with the overall layout and placement of the books.

And, finally, it will give you an easy, yet comprehensive, guide on how to study the Bible, so that you can continue your wonderful journey to unlock the incredible truth found in God's Word. Author, Rich Jensen, came to trust in Christ later than most. Realizing his lack of Biblical knowledge, he felt led to write a book which would give anyone basic knowledge of Scripture. That idea took a back seat while he began writing devotionals which became the basis of his first book of devotionals, "WOW Weekly". After some years, he developed what would be the right format and content for "A Primer for New Christians". His hope is that it would foment a deep desire on one's part to continue studying Scripture.

It can be quite daunting to discover all the meaningful knowledge that can be found in God''s Word, within its sixty-six books of life-changing content.However, author Rich Jensen successfully organizes several of God''s revealing truths into his yearlong (fifty-two weeks) devotional, Words of Wisdom from God''s Word. Each week comprises a primary verse of discussion in the devotional, followed by set questions to prompt journaling opportunities and memory verses to keep in one''s mind and heart. Rich begins his devotionals with Week One''s discussion of Genesis 1:1, the beginning of the heavens and earth from God. The lesson concentrates on creation; that God alone can create, while man can only use what God has created and must rely on Him for everything, especially having a personal relationship with Him.As the devotionals progress, topics such as the necessity of rest, purpose of Jesus'' death on the cross and what to expect when you read the Bible are also depicted.Rich coincides the scripture verses with personal insight and interpretation to show God''s truths can affect a person''s life for the better and can be used to uncover one''s purpose and calling in life. The devotional concludes with a motivating entry about who Jesus is, born in the month of Christmas to a struggling nation. As God brought Jesus into the world when the world needed Him, God will bring Him forth again when the time is right to reclaim His dominion of heaven and earth.Words of Wisdom from God''s Word is an engaging venture into the substance of the Bible, giving readers an inside glimpse into the Heavenly Father''s mindset to help daily live for Him instead of themselves.
