Art of Teaching Adults: LEADING Meaningful Bible Classes

Though it may not always seem that way, adults want to learn more about God, His Word, and their faith. They do! Many haven't attended Bible study in years and have developed a lot of misunderstandings and questions about God and His word, and many of their new ideas do not fit with the teachings of the Bible, especially with all the inaccurate information floating around the internet. So, why don't they attend Bible study? Adults don't have to and they won't attend if they don't find what they're learning helpful or meaningful to their lives. That's not about what is taught, but how it's taught.

There are 5 stages of faith education. This book is about the Wisdom Stage, which is adulthood. It's the stage where people are using a fully developed brain and a facilitator can introduce and use BIBLE INQUIRY, a way of teaching that is contrary to sitting and listening. It's engaging, probing, investigating, discussing, and discovering. This book shows how to take typical adult Bible studies and present them in more of an inquiry than a study. If you want to teach in a way that takes the learner into something more engaging, this is for you.
