Summary: High Praise for Ryken and Wilhoit
Comment: I used to teach in a school of biblical studies preparing men to preach. On occasion I would have a student say they had little trouble preaching, but that they couldn't teach a Bible class worth a lick. I recommended this book and still recommend it today-much to students' delight. In fact, our church ordered a dozen of these books to help our our teachers learn how to teach the Bible more effectively. If you want to learn how to teach the Bible effectively, you won't be disappointed.
Rating: 2
Summary: Useful, but disappointing
Comment: The back cover of this book states correctly, "Compared to preaching, books on teaching appear only rarely. Good ones, designed especially for those who teach the Bible to adults, can scarcely be found."
Given the pedigree of the authors, I had high expectations when I purchased this book. I especially thought that I had found a book that approached education from a *distinctively* Christian perspective. I was disappointed.
The first chapter or so was more like what I expected, discribing the need for effective Bible teaching. But the rest of the book contains what are basically the same perspectives and techniques as any other book on education. It was not *distinctively* Christian pedagogically speaking, but rather the same old educational theory applied to teaching the Bible.
Perhaps my expectations for this book were too high. Perhaps the book I'm looking for is not yet written. Any suggestions would be welcomed.
