Core 52 : A Fifteen-Minute Daily Guide to Build Your Bible IQ in a Year (Paperback)

This book is well written and to the point. I am enjoying reading this book. I am learning a lot.

I appreciated the concept behind the book-that there are fifty-two core verses in the Bible that form a foundation for what the entire Bible teaches. That could be overwhelming-to tackle that in one year, but I found this book to be very user-friendly. It's set up to explore each topic for five days, but in easily "digestible" bits and pieces. It works for me. The essays are interesting to read, and the Scripture reading is appropriate. One of the assignments each week is to memorize the key verse, and I have embraced that challenge as I work through the book. For those who struggle with memorizing Scripture, following this plan and reviewing often makes it doable. Full disclosure: I have not read through the whole book yet, but from what I have worked through, I recommend it. I've found the content to be theologically sound and applicable. This book is good for individual use, and would be a great tool to use in a small group, Sunday School class, discipleship, or for an entire church. I received an ARC of this book from the publisher, WaterBrook, for review purposes. The thoughts expressed here are my own.
