7 Ways of Teaching the Bible to Adults: Using Our Multiple Intelligences to Build Faith »

Adult learners, as well as children, learn in a variety of ways. Some prefer visual aids; others need a hands-on approach. Some learn best in solitude; others enjoy working in groups. Barbara Bruce helps teachers and learners understand seven different learning styles, or "intelligences," and how these learning styles can be used to bring the Word of God alive for adult students.

Seven chapters introduce each of the intelligences, including a scriptural reference. Chapters also include: suggestions of activities to incorporate a specific intelligence into lessons, questions for the teacher on his or her own preference for that particular intelligence, a lesson focusing on the intelligence, and a prayer demonstrating the intelligence. In addition, the book contains suggestions for teacher training, bibliographies, a glossary, and a self-discovery sheet.
