Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Lord, Give Me a Heart for You
Kay Arthur · 2009
78/100
👍 Worth It
Kay Arthur's inductive method genuinely puts the Bible in the reader's hands rather than just explaining what to think — for an evangelical adult wanting to go deep on 2 Corinthians, this is a well-structured, publisher-reviewed eleven-week guide from one of the most trusted names in Christian Bible study. The colored-pencil marking system asks for materials commitment and the format is not casual, but readers willing to engage the structure consistently report real transformation. Faith-tradition scope is explicitly and unapologetically evangelical Protestant.
✦ Penny’s Take — this is The Review Group’s own editorial assessment. Penny’s analytical review line researched this book from real sources and scored it across the lenses shown below. It’s an honest first-party read — not a page-by-page personal one. The gold ✓ Penny Tested mark is reserved for books Penny reads cover to cover herself.
⚠ Parent note — our reviewers flagged: Explicitly evangelical Christian Bible study — faith-tradition flag for awareness, no score cap; content is doctrinally orthodox and appropriate for intended audience. We still scored it 78; these are context for your family, not an automatic skip.
