Ephesians:Discovering Your Identity and Purpose in Christ by Sue Edwards.

About Ephesians: Women need Bible study to keep balanced, focused and Christ-centered in their busy worlds. However, many find it difficult to set aside the time and discipline needed for an in-depth study. The Discover Together studies offer tiered questions to allow readers to choose a depth of study that fits with their individual lifestyles or schedules, even if they vary by the week, month or season
This insightful Bible study uses the example of Paul's church in Ephesus to show readers how they can be victorious Christians, living in God's Word, and free from sin. Part of the discovery series, the Ephesians edition includes tips for either individual or group use, inspirational sidebars and short, 3-5 minute teaching videos. Scan the video QR code in the book with a smart phone or visit the series website to watch Sue provide historical and cultural background, teach important truths found in each week's lesson, or ask thoughtful questions to encourage deeper discussion.

My Take:  Like her Revelation Bible Study I found this study insightful and relevant to my life.  I like that I can dig as deep or as little as I want in this study.  I like the videos that you can watch for the lessons that bring a certain part of that lesson home.  I like the extras that are in the margins so you can dig deeper.  The lessons are suppose to take about 1 1/2 hours to complete which I found to be pretty accurate.   If you are looking for a study that can give you insight into what you should be doing in your Christian life this study can point you in the right direction.  

I received a review copy of this study from Litfuse in exchange for my honest opinion.

My Take:  This Bible Study is a totally new concept for me.  Taking a Bible Study online through Facebook.  I have always wanted to learn alittle more about Revelation and this Bible Study seemed to be the perfect way.  The book is set up in a very similar way  that most Bible Studies are these days.  The chapters are suppose to take about an hour and 1/2 to complete if you sit and do them all at once.  But I have been working on these a little bit at a time as I find the time throughout the week.  the questions really make you think.  In the Sidebar are questions for digging deeper which I intend on going back and working through those questions once I am finished with the study.  I haven't really been able to really take advantage of the whole online aspect of this study although I do read the questions and think about them.  My favorite part are the qr codes that are sprinkled through out the study.  It is fun scanning the codes and then watching the video that pops up.  Kind of like a scavenger hunt. I am learning alot from this study and look forward to participating in future studies by Sue Edwards.

I received a review copy of this book.  Opinions are my own.
