Polished sermons and prepared Bible studies can inadvertently cause the average Christian to feel inadequate and ill-equipped to study the Scriptures themselves. The result is an ever-increasing level of biblical illiteracy in most churches and an over-dependence on preachers and sermons.

With that in mind, Matt Rogers and Donny Mathis have written “Seven Arrows,” a book designed to aid all of God’s people in the task of reading, understanding and applying God’s Word. Using seven simple arrows, Rogers and Mathis provide a clear, orderly and memorable guide for studying any passage of Scripture.

Rogers is pastor of The Church at Cherrydale in Greenville, and Mathis is an associate professor of Christian studies at North Greenville University.

Their book has been selected by the Student Ministry Group of the South Carolina Baptist Convention to be used at Summersalt student camp this summer.

“Seven Arrows” is available at Amazon.com. For more about the book, visit http://equiptogrow.com/howd-he-do-that.
