Discussion Questions
7 questions1.Wilkin opens this chapter by noting that the women who teach the Bible have an enormous responsibility. Why is the stakes of Bible teaching so high — what is lost when the Bible is taught poorly?
2.She distinguishes between a teacher who communicates her own thoughts and experiences *using the Bible* and a teacher who actually expounds and explains what the Bible says. What is the difference in practice, and how can a listener tell which kind of teaching they are receiving?
3.Wilkin encourages teachers to commit to expository teaching — working through a book of the Bible passage by passage. What are the advantages of that approach over topical teaching? What does it protect both the teacher and the congregation from?
