I bought this as part of a bible study group.
I found it very useful to have a book to work from at home.
Very good at getting in-depth questions from people within the group too. (Posted on 10/06/10)

Having agreed to lead this course to a housegroup of approx 10 people I worried that the workbook seemed rather basic - however, once conversation and interpretation kicked in it was amazing how relevant the teachings were to issues of today and we came across some really difficult issues. i did feel that some of the questions were repetative but was able to work through the programme leaving some of them out.
The prayers suggestions were good at the end, but again, they were adapted to suit our group. (Posted on 29/11/09)

I used this guide for my quiet times by splitting one study over several days, and found that it worked well. (Posted on 11/10/08)

These studies have been great for our home group. The observation questions got us into the text and always worked towards a clear main point, and the application questions kicked off fruitful discussion about how it changes our lives. Crucially, the application always came straight out of the main points of the passage. I've never found Bible studies before which needed so little adaptation before using them with our group!

Looking at the issues of faith, hope and love through this book has provided a real challenge to my faith. The questions have been really thought provoking and have encourged growth in my christian walk. Have seen a big difference in the lives of those who attendeed the bible study group as we are more open and caring towards each other as well as reaching out actively to others. (Posted on 1/12/07)

I find this book a really straightforward and adaptable way of getting into 1 Thessalonians. I have used it with two different youth cell groups, both of whom have enjoyed it. The application questions are helpful. The studies can be easily broken into smaller sections if there is not enough time to complete them in one go. (Posted on 25/10/07)

Am using this with an adult post-confirmation group. What a great start -to read through the whole book in one sitting. Each study provides both understanding and application. The group have been able to work on passages between weeks. It doesn't duck any challenges. I've not used it slavishly, but have greatly appreciated the framework - thank you. (Posted on 13/09/07)

I've 'done' this Bible study guide twice now with different groups of women. The reaction of the second group was that it is repetitive!
As with most study guides each study was too long. Some conveniently could be done over 2 weeks.

very useful for our group study.
Easy to follow and has good questions, some based on the text and some for group discussion, with helpful notes in the back for leaders.
