Just as a rock climber's handhold enables him to master the mountain, a firm grasp on God's word empowers us to traverse the challenging, risky slopes of life. Grasping God's Word helps college students, beginning seminary students, and other serious listeners get a grip on the solid rock of scripture - how to read it, how to interpret it, and how to apply it.
Filling the gap between approaches that are too simple and others that are too technical, Grasping God's Word starts by equipping listeners with general principles of interpretation then moves on to apply those principles to specific genres and contexts. (This product is an audio lecture by the authors recorded before a live audience and is based on the text of the book Grasping God's Word.)
