One to One Bible Reading: A Simple Guide for Every Christian

“David Helm is deeply committed to the public exposition of God’s word and the training of preachers. Yet in this guide he advocates a deep–rooted culture of one–to–one Bible reading in our churches. Surely the two go hand in hand, but many Christians don’t know where to start in this personal Bible reading ministry. This guide provides the inspiration for this desperately needed ministry revolution and the growth of the gospel vine into every corner of our communities.”

“One–to–one Bible reading is vital for effective and vibrant gospel ministry. This simple guide to an essential ministry is a magnificent resource that will be useful for training all Christians in ministry. There is little else like it. We shall use it extensively at St. Helen’s.”

“One of my great joys in ministry among women is reading the Bible with just one other person. David’s book explains in a clear and straightforward way how each one of us can get started in this simple yet life–changing ministry. If you have a heart for kingdom growth then read this book, pray and make a start!”

“David Helm has written a guide to help Christians in one of the most basic methods of helping others: reading the Bible with them. In evangelism, in edification, nothing can beat opening the text of the Bible and reading what God himself has actually said. Christians need only have confidence in God’s word and a basic skill in reading it with others. David has done us a great service in helping people gain that basic skill.”

“This is a fresh approach to one of the most practical and personal ways of sharing the gospel. This strategy for evangelistic ministry is very important for making disciples. Pastors, you’ll want to get copies for your elders, deacons, staff, discipleship coordinators and congregations.”

“Helm’s booklet encourages relational evangelism and discipleship based on the living and active word of God, offering practical tools for one–on–one Bible reading and envisioning a mobilization of God’s people that would complement church programs. Helm calls us to invite people not only to an event, but into our lives and into the life of faith in Jesus Christ offered in his word.”
