Not Just a Hearer But a Doer: Volume 2
Posted on July 22nd, 2014 No commentsNot Just a Hearer But a Doer: Volume 2 by Yolanda Shanks
This book provides thirty-one days of hands-on training in living a better life the Christian way. The book is geared toward those who desire to change their mind-set and actually live the lessons that the Bible teaches.
Each lesson is broken down into sections:
*The Lead-in
*Bible verses
*Background (historical period)
*Interpretation/Application
*Personalize Scripture Text
This book was easy to use. It gave the reader great content to think about. It definitely held to its topic of altering our thoughts of Biblical principles to include them in our day-to-day lives. It’s wonderful to read our Bibles, but we need to apply what we’ve learned.
A lot of work went into writing this Bible study. The author seemed to care a lot about her readers. There were lessons on lessening your load and overcoming a burnt-out disposition, among others. I felt these subjects worth delving into.
On the negative side, I sometimes felt the author was condescending. She put in definitions of simple words that most readers can understand.
I also wish she had used the NIV of the Bible instead of the King James Version. The NIV was created for easy reading of the Scriptures. The meaning of the verse isn’t lost in the unfamiliar words. I actually looked up every verse in my own Bible instead of struggling through the verses written in the book.
Nevertheless, I would recommend this book to anyone who desires to walk the walk of Christian faith. The book highlights the areas we need to focus on.
The publisher has provided me with a complimentary copy of the book through BookCrash.

First of all I would like to say terrific blog! I had a quick question in which I’d like to ask if you don’t mind. I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your head prior to writing. I have had a tough time clearing my mind in getting my ideas out there. I do enjoy writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are generally lost simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or tips? Appreciate it!|掲示板}

I’ve been looking for a plug-in like this for quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this. Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new updates.

A lot of what you mention happens to be supprisingly precise and it makes me wonder the reason why I hadn’t looked at this with this light previously. This particular piece truly did turn the light on for me personally as far as this particular issue goes. But there is actually one position I am not necessarily too comfortable with so while I make an effort to reconcile that with the core theme of the point, let me observe exactly what the rest of the subscribers have to say.Very well done.
