Living a Life of True Worship: A 6-Week, No-Homework Bible Study

This is the 1st Precept study that I have ever done, which I did on my own while on vacation. I chose the book simply because it was on sale at my local Goodwill. However, it has been a great investment. The name of the book can sound intimidating and obscure with the term "worship," but it is effective at bringing it into life application. This book merges Old and New Testament in describing how we are to come to God in reverence for his holiness. First, it starts out by describing in detail all the things found in the temple -- complete with pictures. It explains the symbolism of how those objects were used in the very elaborate and precise ceremonies in the Old Testament that the Jews were required to perform in order to come to God. Then it ties in New Testament verses on how those symbolic temple objects can be applied in our lives. It was very insightful, and even though I have been a Christian for 20 years, I really had never had the opportunity to study anything like this in the depth that this study covers. The only advice for doing this study is to have colored pencils or pens, and enough quiet time to think about what you are reading. Precept does a great job of asking some questions that make you think and apply it to your life. All the Bible verses that are covered are written in the book, so while it's nice to have a Bible next to you, it's not critical. (I liked that because it's often hard to be reading 5 different passages and try to keep all the bookmarks in place in your Bible.)
