Keeping Your Balance in Our Religious World is a helpful guide to learn how to better interpret the Bible. Kenneth L. Weatherford has written a companion piece to his book, Finding Your Balance in Our Religious World that readers will find insightful on their spiritual journey.  This book is a study guide about finding a religious balance between an internal religious belief and the outside world. The text has chapters about grace, faith, and events in the Bible like Christ’s resurrection. The study guide has questions that people can ask about incisive points Weatherford made in Finding Your Spiritual Balance in a Religious World. Weatherford also lists Bible verses that readers can turn to while discussing the book.

This book is a thought-provoking guide to understanding Christianity better in an open-minded and modern way. In contrast to other religious texts that can seem narrow-minded, Weatherford advocates reaching out to people of differing faiths and beliefs while still being a devout Christian. Keeping Your Balance in Our Religious World also differs from “fire and brimstone” Biblical texts with his emphasis on love, forgiveness, and kindness as a Christian. Additionally, this book encourages readers to keep asking questions about the Bible through self-reflection and introspection.

Keeping Your Balance in Our Religious World encourages readers to get more information about Biblical studies from Christian authors like A. W. Tozer. The accompanying questions of the text with We simplify the complexity of the Bible with Weatherford’s effortless writing about faith. Weatherford’s straightforward and personable writing makes Christianity and complicated concepts such as the Holy Trinity easier to understand for lay Christians.

Keeping Your Balance in Our Religious World would be perfect for Christians who want a deeper spiritual understanding of their faith. The book would be best read with Finding Your Balance in a Religious World and other Biblical texts from best-selling ministers like Jim Wallis. The text would also be ideal for Bible study groups and church groups that want to study religion with other Christians. Even non-Christians can get an understanding of the faith by reading the study guide and learn more about a different religious path from this book. Weatherford has written a book that will enlighten readers. Keeping Your Balance in Our Religious World is an excellent study guide for readers who want to improve their spiritual growth.
