Authored by Dr. R. Lamar Vest, the new volume is an outlined teaching manual for understanding the Bible. Vest is a former General Overseer of the Church of God, who was elected to serve from 1990-1994 and again from 2000-2004. He is also a past President/CEO and President Emeritus of the American Bible Society.
“Dr. Vest has written what amounts to a Bible handbook from a Pentecostal perspective that is a truly practical teaching guide,” said Dr. Wayne Brewer, international co-director of Adult Discipleship Ministries. “The Library of Divine Inspiration comes complete with helpful graphics, reproducible chapter outlines for student handouts, covers both the Old Testament and New Testament, and a full scripture index with a special section on the parables of Christ. Dr. Vest brings his immense experience of personally working with some of the world’s leading Bible scholars and exegetes to provide a discipling resource which will provide to the Bible student both a superb introduction and a much deeper understanding of what the Bible really is and how to clearly interpret and benefit from it.”
The 256-page manual is being introduced at a special premiere 15% off of retail price of $16.95 and is now available at adultdiscipleshipcog.com from Church of God Adult Discipleship Ministries. Says Brewer, “In a culture in which pastors and teachers must contend with growing widespread Biblical illiteracy, ‘The Library of Divine Inspiration—A Journey Through the Bible’ is a Godsend to Pentecostal disciple-makers everywhere!”
