Excellent Bible Study & Resource

I received a copy of this book as I was reading through the final chapters of Genesis. Warren Wiersbe tears apart the scripture and provides information that aids in your biblical understanding. Then he provides GREAT discussion questions that make you think about what you've read and how to be an authentic doer of the Word. In an age when false teachers our abundant, it is refreshing to find teaching that is biblical and applicable. Great book, worth the money.

Be Authentic is Authentic

Be Authentic by Warren W. Wiersbe My rating: 5 of 5 stars There are over 4 million "Be" books in print and there is a reason for that! This book, along with it's counterparts, are excellent resources for the person in the pew as well as the full-time ministry personnel. Reading this book is not like reading a dry, just the facts, commentary - it's like reading a fascinating book that helps you really grasp the passages of Genesis 25-50. Wiersbe explains the scripture in a clear way that is easy to understand for anyone, not just the scholars. I highly recommend buying this series of books that will walk you through the entire Bible so that you can have personal access to digging deeper in your walk with Christ. Here is some more detailed information on this book: As pastors seek to make the Word of God more understandable in an age that is unfamiliar with the Bible and as growing disciples seek to discover the truth of Scripture in a skeptical culture, there is a great need for guidance in both the preaching and study of God's Word. Whether you're a pastor, a seminary student or a truth-seeking disciple, an understanding of the Bible can be made clear to you with the help of one of the most influential, in-depth and practical Bible scholars in modern history. A man who has given his life to a deep examination of the Word of God, Dr. Warren W. Wiersbe is an internationally known Bible teacher, former pastor of The Moody Church in Chicago and the author of more than 150 books. For over thirty years, millions have come to rely on the timeless wisdom of Dr. Warren W. Wiersbe's "Be" Commentary series. Dr. Wiersbe's commentary and insights on Scripture have helped readers understand and apply God's Word with the goal of life transformation. Dubbed by many as the "pastor's pastor," Dr. Wiersbe skillfully weaves Scripture with historical explanations and thought-provoking questions, communicating the Word in such a way that the masses grasp its relevance for today. Easily accessible for both pastors and lay people alike, Wiersbe's profound study guides can be used in personal Bible study or with a group. David C Cook's third installment of eight revised "BE" series volumes each feature updated content for today's readers, a new introduction by Ken Baugh and new study questions for each chapter.

Do you really have faith in God?

I really like these bible studies because they are told in a story biographical manner. They don't whitewash the people, they present them as they are, the problems they faced, how they responded, and how God responded. Everyone makes mistakes and sins, that's reality. The message here is that God forgives the sin, stays true to his covenant and promised blessings, but doesn't erase the sin, the sinner still has to face the consequences of his sin, even if it is years later or the next day. I liked the quote that the author uses which to me sums up this part of the family tree: "Faith is living without scheming." How much better off these men would have been if they had had faith in God and hadn't schemed to have their own way. Having the study follow the leaders through 3 generations helped to show how characteristics follow through the people time after time, century after century. The ponderings at the end of each chapter helped to bring the theme of that chapter into the present day and also to review the chapter. It is an excellent bible study.

A Wonderful Commentary on Genesis 25-50

I absolutely adore Warren Wiersbe's "Be" series of commentaries. These informative books are a valuable tool for any serious Bible student. They are designed to be read in conjunction with the book of the Bible that is being studied to shed light on words and phrases and customs of the time. Each chapter addresses a manageable portion of scripture and ends with a series of questions that can be used for discussion or personal reflection and study. The notes at the end of the book also contain valuable information that will lead the reader to greater understanding of scripture, and consequently, a deeper relationship with the Lord. "Be Authentic: Exhibiting Real Faith In The Real World" is a wonderful resource in this series. There are valuable lessons within the pages of this incredible work of non-fiction that will inspire and grow the faith of the reader. This brilliantly engaging and informative book deals with Genesis 25-50, some of my favorite Old Testament reading. I cannot wait to use this book in my next in-depth study of those passages.

Be Authentic by: Warren Wiersbe

Great reading. If you're looking to obtain an understanding of the Book of Genesis, this is the book for you. It not only explains verses, the author is not afraid to include opinions of other biblical scholars that may differ. I highly recommend all 3 books on Genesis.
