2/20 I am in a gropu of men who meet every Friday. We have a time of accountability for the prior week. We have times of prayer. Our commitment is to bread Encounter with God as our daily quiet time. This group is a reading "tool" as we discuss ways God has spoken to us through SU and other times with the Lord.

1/29 APPLY If you were going to give evidence for Jesus to a sincere seeker, what would you say? I would give my testimony. I would talk about how Jesus has helped me where I wasn't able to help myself.
     - Pat(Philadelphia)
1/28 Interesting. This is exactly the way people are today. For them to have faith alone does not work. And for Jesus to say, "My message is not my own; it comes from God who sent me, does not convince those who don't believe.

11/12 I am very fond of the SU Daily. However I have a question: Why is there a Reading - Today a great passage from 1 John 1 - but then the meditation is on a different passage ?(today Job). Why not have one reading and a meditation on it - to maintain focus?
     - Paul(Boston)
11/6 The one to use is your daily guide because it is not biased and does not teach any church doctrine. And because of its special way of writing. I believe so much in SU DAILY GUIDE,it has helped me as a person.
     - Mcbright Ndornake (PORTHARCOUT REGION, NIGERIA)

7/7 Psalm 42:5,11 and 43:5 say the same thing, 'hope in God.' What touches me is the "yet." I shall 'yet' praise Him. David is not actively praising at this time but his faith does not waver. Daily Bible reading, and now SU, help me to maintain that same kind of faith. Even when I'm down I know God will yet lift me up...

10/17 For many year SU was the only Bible reading we had and knew in Rwanda. And since I was born again in 70s It became like a diet to me, other Bible reading tools do not speak to me the way it does.
     - William Mwizerwa(Nashville- Tennessee)
10/1 I am fascinated by the Bible's cohesiveness. Jesus and N.T. authors frequently refer to their "Bible" both actively and passively. So I like to flip to a cross referenced passage as I am reading my devotional. Sometimes it would be helpful to have a map avaliable(see 10/1/08 to see Ramah and Shiloh}. Occasionally a Bible Dictionary would be helpful. Frequently in the devotional comments there is good insight and clarification of questions that come up as I am reading. But I Always read the passa...(more)

7/6 Both Discovery and Encounter are used along with Upmost by Chambers, along with Message and NIV paraphase and translations. To deepen the meaning at least for me of the Word of God. We certainly appreciate the insights from the different writers.
     - Paul Bennett(Denver, Colorado)
6/26 I use the King James Version of the bible because I feel that it is the truest form of the translation of God's Word to His people. It helps me see the messages in the daily readings in the Light of His Word. Thank you, Scripture Union, for the great job you are doing with Discovery and your other resources. May God richly bless you. And, I am looking forward to the Encounter With God weekend coming up in October, 2008.

3/11 We pray every morning with children and most of time we read the children's devocional together, right before the go to school, but reading SU is just for me, trying to face before the Lord my spiritual needs according to the reading of the Scripture of the day , I need that moment for me, in my intimacy with the Lord. I read the bible as the only tool.

1/3 Reading the new Daily Bread I am somewhat disturbed by the apparent acceptance of man made scientific conclusions over what is actually written in Genesis. Either we accept that everything was created as described or we don't. I don't see how one can "cherry pick". There is no evidence to support the statement that "It is a geographical Fact that much of the drama is set in mesopotamia." Surely we do not know what the geograhical situation was before the flood?

4/20 Discovery, because it's really edifying and very interesting the way it is organised: "pray", "reflect", "apply"...

3/13 Well bible study is something that always needs some guide lines as it is very difficult to comprehend,thus an su daily guide should work,though in general any guidline be it a study tool or something else it's all useful
     - oscar tutai(harare,zimbabwe)
3/12 I will like a copy of the Daily guide please How can I get it
     - Wemimo(London)
2/28 yes
     - ESR KOTI REDDY(INDIA)
1/15 I find other translations and commentaries helpful to my understanding. I have also found that, although I don't use the guide in a bible study group, it is helpful to have another person with whom to discuss the daily readings.
     - Cheryl(VT)
12/7 I like discovery as I find it timely and usually speaks to me about something that is taking place in my life that day. I find teh readings usually are very donw to earth and clear to understand
     - Bruce(Media, PA, USA)
11/27 I often use Bible gateway to cross reference and to read other translations simultaneously so that I have a richer and deeper meaning of Go'd messages. I love SU's online Prayer jouranl and the Bible journal which I use. Reflecting and writng down your thoughts of what you have absorbed in the daily reading and how it applies personally and then praying and recording the prayer as well is so powerful. The only disappoinment with Bible Journal is that it does not display the written thoughts...(more)

11/18 DAILY POWER. I LIKE THIS BECAUSE IT IT EASY TO UNDERSTAND
     - ADU K EMMNUEL(GHANA)
11/10 I use The Kings James Study Bible, New Kings James, and the Amplified bible. They seem to give me a better understanding of what I'm reading.
     - Larry(Craig, Colorado)
11/10 matthew henry study bible,jamieson-faucet-brown commentary
     - eustace alleyne(phila. pa)
10/18 I use a word study, bible dictionary and hebrew and greek translations, and sometimes a dictionary of theology. These help me to see for myself the truth of what is written.
     - DARLENE ROBERTDON(Maryland Usa)
10/7 I use the Women's Bible Commentary, published by InterVarsity Press. It offers a different perspective on Scripture not covered in other tomes. Also, I use the TNIV version because of its gender accuracy.
     - Sara(Wheaton, IL)
9/9 I use Scripture Union Nigeria Daily Guide. I use it because I am a pilgrim who also belongs to a pilgrims Group.

8/23 I use the cross-references in my own KJV Bible to try and perceive the interconnectedness and harmony of the Scriptures. Concordance is good for this, too.
     - Ryan(Chicago suburbs)
8/8 I join the SU in our school and we don't have any tool which we use. So I want you to send me a bible which I can use to continue my SU membership..
     - Felix Osei-Bonsu(Am in Adum house no.OTB240 in kumasi - ghana -west africa.)
7/25 In my studies of the translated versions, I find the authorized King James Bible to be the only true translation from Hebrew and Greek. I don't understand why the other versions are so popular. Check out Acts 8:37 in the NIV and other versions compared to the King James and see what's been left out. In Revelations 22:19, the Bible says if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life...
     - June(ibeforgod@yahoo.com)
7/12 since 1998 i started su i have been using kjv,amplifing,niv ibo Bible and good news Bible, but i love to use good news Bible mostly because i understand it very well, that is it has common english i can understand better.

6/23 I do not use any Bible tool so I want you to send me some by post.Daniel Ofori p.o.box2097 kumasi Ghana
     - Daniel Ofori
6/3 I find the Discovery Bible Readings so very meaningful and use the Life Application Study Bible ((NIV) and Living Bible for cross references. My husband used Encounter With God and would like to try that sometime soon. All your messages are so very helpful to me.
     - Madeline C. Hildebrand(Maryville, TN)
5/28 I especially like William Barkley. I wish he had written commentary on the Old Testament, too. Does anyone know of a similar treatment of the OT?
     - 2Lu(Pittsburgh, PA)
5/24 I use the Everyday Study Bible with the New Century Version translation. The notes are very helpful in providing a historical analysis of the culture, people and events of that time.
     - Myra Akins(Gary, IN)
5/24 We are delighted to see a broad SU website. I say we because I am brousing together with my fellow SU volunteer of SU Kenya. We would like to get involved and learn more from SU USA, in order to experience the 1st world resourses you enjoy. This is not to say that we are in a wasteland but to gain more from you. I plan to come and study at a university in the south of USA. I am still struggling to raise the fees. I hope it will be possible to join and be part of you in my short stay. My friend ...(more)

5/5 I use many Bible versions for comparisons and expounding, but prefer the KJV.
     - Marija(Melbourne Vic.)
4/30 This is the first time I am making use of this Forum. For some time I have been receiving the 'Discovery' messages. Having looked at the 'Encounter with God' message recently I am planning to switcvh over to that guide as there is a choice of versions (though limitesd) to read God's Word from. I feel the reading provided is a good way to start the day with and to be guided throughout the day by the light of the Word. George

4/12 I need prayer power to intervene in my son's life. He is in deep trouble in Seattle. Please pray that he will open his eyes to the truth. He already accepted Jesus as his savior when he was 6 yrs. old and was baptized in the Holy Spirit. He has backslidden and please pray that God's will be done in his life. In Jesus' name, Karen
     - Karen Fernandez(Keshena, Wisconsin)
4/6 I use a good (and FREE) online Bible package called e-Sword (www.e-sword.net). A number of translations are available. I often use the KJV with Strong's numbers because the program instantly shows me the original Hebrew or Greek and its definition.
     - Richard(NC)
4/4 I often use a different translation just to see how others may have viewed the passage and perhaps provide me another perspective.
