I love this book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
My copy is falling apart from use! I love the way the author takes a biblical passage and then gently explains what it means for the layperson, and how a biblical passage can apply to a personal conflict in one's life. Personally, I consult it regularly -- it's so calming, soothing, and wise. I feel like it's a good friend who gives me the best advice. I recommend it highly to those who are depressed; going through changes in their lives; etc. I think that this book gives spiritual comfort and helps the reader figure out answers during a period of conflict. And if that answer is, "not now", this book is wise enough to provide the strength & courage one needs, to wait.

Wonderful, balanced, common-sense guide to everyday problems
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This book speaks to what each and every one of us as human beings struggles with daily, and throughout our lives. It is simply a wonderfully balanced, common-sense guide to everyday problems we all face, and helps us put our difficulties - whatever they may be, in perspective. I recommend it highly! I had actually borrowed this book from the library many years ago and dreaded giving it back. My roommate at the time was so intrigued with my unsolicited review that she special-ordered it for herself; I always regretted not having done the same. I was extremely pleased recently to find it in reprint. Since then I have ordered extra copies and have given them as gifts. I believe that anyone sincerely looking for insight and guidance will not be disappointed in what this book has to offer.
This is a powerful little book that will offer pratical help
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
I had bought this little book some years ago and was drawn to it for the purpose of helping my care receiver. I was in awe of the wisdom that is so beautifully expressed through the healing power of the Bible. I would recommend it to anyone, but especially someone who is in need of emotional or spiritual healing. I purchased an extra copy to give to my Stephen Ministry group.
A great book showing everyday uses of the Bible's message!

Dr. James Gibson, does a wonderful job in his book, Healing Wisdom from the Bible, on describing how the Bible is an essential tool for all Christian in dealing with life's ups and downs. Dr. Gibson takes a variety of Old and New Testament scriptures and through his own insight and personal experiences, explains how a particular passage can relate to one's life today. This book will provide a good basis for a new Christian in showing that the stories of the Bible are more than just interesting stories passed on from generation to generation. Rather these scriptures, being the Word of God, contain wisdom that will help us deal with our inner most fears and concerns. For Christians that are very fluent with the Bible, this book may provide a possible new insight on what a particular scripture may mean. No matter what level of Bible knowledge one has, this book will cause you to think about the meaning of scripture.
