Sofa Spotlight: Dig Even Deeper, Andrew Sach & Richard Alldritt

To get the most from this book, you need to have the book in one hand and a Bible in the other. It also helps if you have read Dig Deeper by Nigel Beynon and Andrew Sach. Dig Deeper explains some tools to help you study the Bible. Dig Even Deeper, shows you how they work in practice.

They use Exodus as their case study. It is well worth reading Exodus before reading the book so that you can have some idea of what they are talking about. They have broken Exodus down into about fourteen sections, each covered by a separate chapter. Each chapter gives you an opportunity to use the tools for yourself and they don't answer everything so you do have to do some work.

The writers use a tone that makes it an easy book to read. They are friendly and not afraid of making a joke or pointing out the obvious. Sometimes though this comes across as a little patronising, but that is a minor thing. If you've read Dig Deeper and enjoyed it, then you will like this.

Who is it for? Anyone who has never studied the Bible for themselves and doesn't know where to start, or anyone who wants to improve their Bible study skills. I've enjoyed reading Exodus by using these tools so it’s worth it just for getting to know Exodus better, but you have the tools that can be used anywhere in the Bible.
