I really enjoy Biblical Non-Fiction books and Bible Studies. But in Mount Zion is the Companion Bible Study for  Knowing Obadiah: a Christian Women’s Bible Commentary by April W. Gardner. 

I had the opportunity to read Knowing Obadiah earlier this year, so I was excited to read the Bible Study Companion also. I truly LOVED this Bible Study Companion workbook. The format of the Study is divided into 5 Parts: Group Discussion Questions, Self Reflection, Scriptures to Ponder, Commentary, and Group Discussion Answers. The format is meant to be used with a Group setting, but it could be adapted to use on your own. The author has made the Companion Book as a way to get the reader to go deep into the Word of God and ponder the Book of Obadiah! I HIGHLY recommend using the Knowing Obadiah Book along with this Companion Bible Study together.  WONDERFUL BOOK!

More from April

How close are you to your Bible? I don’t mean the distance from you to the nightstand where it’s resting. Or the amount of warm-and-fuzzy you feel toward it. Or the number of heartfelt notes you’ve scribbled sideways into the margins. I mean, how close is your connection to the Bible’s people and places?

Are you here in the twenty-first century while it’s there in some unknown BC year? Are you here in your comfy chair re-reading old Bible stories while prophets and priests are there battling against idolatry, while apostles and saints are there suffering for Jesus?

Or are you here and there, backside in a plush chair but feet planted in the hot sands of the Negev, body existing in the twenty-first century, but heart and mind connected to every message and mission given in Scripture?

The story of the Bible isn’t a three-act play: Old Testament characters and plot, New Testament characters and plot, present-day characters and plot. From Genesis 1 to today, it’s all the same act. We are all players in God’s Great Story. If we’re Christians saved by Christ’s sacrificial death, we’re all joined by the same Scarlet Thread. From Adam through Joshua, Obadiah, Esther, Lydia, Stephen, and all the rest to you and me.

It’s my hope that as you go deeper into the study of Obadiah, its origins, prophecy, and fulfillment, that you’ll place yourself at the center of its Before-Christ settings, that you’ll feel Esau’s grief, Jerusalem’s terror, and Judah’s righteous anger, and that you’ll look to God’s stage where His Story is playing out and say to yourself, “These are my people. This is my story. I am a player.”

So. Let’s get playing.
