1 Peter
Sustained by a Living Hope, A 5-Week Study
by Mariel Davenport
Rating: 4 star rating
This is a Bible study that you’ve got to check out. The book is: 1 Peter: Sustained by a Living Hope by Mariel Davenport. It is a 5-week workbook from Our Daily Bread Publishing that helps you read and apply the book of 1 Peter to your own life without getting overwhelmed.
The author uses a simple 4-step method called the "TEND" method for your daily reading:
Take time to pray.
Examine the verses.
Notice the lessons.
Do what it says.
It takes away the intimidation of reading the Bible. Instead, you get to write in the book, circle keywords, and figure out what the verses mean for you today.
The whole study is about finding hope when life gets messy. Mariel connects the dots between the Apostle Peter and the stuff we deal with today. She also talks about her own life, like how she went from being an atheist to finding faith. It makes her feel like someone you can relate to, not a boring teacher.
The book is about 144 pages and comes with some great features:
This needs to be shorter and prepared more like you were talking to a friend about this. It needs to be able to used on Amazon or goodreads.
Note Space: You have room to scribble down your own thoughts.
QR Codes: You can scan them with your phone to watch quick video clips of Mariel teaching.
Group Guide: A section in the back if you want to do this with friends.
By the time you finish week five, you will have a plan to give your worries to God and keep moving forward with your study. It’s a great tool if you want to get deeper into your faith.
Thank you, NetGalley, Our Daily Bread Publishing, and the author, Mariel Davenport, for the book review consideration. All opinions are my own.
