this i KNOW, Trusting Your Unknown Future To A Known God by Laura Dingman, Moody Publishers


“When so much is unknown, we need to refocus on what is known-
-about our God and His Word”.
Laura Dingman, A Note From the Author


This I KNOW is a 4-6 week bible study guide that Laura Dingman incorporates bible scriptures, personal experiences, and learning opportunities.  Each of the six chapters begins with an introduction followed by five days of study in one week. Every day the bible study ends with a “Prayer for the Day” that the participant reads and is encouraged to create prayer of their choosing. Lastly, the “Journaling Prompt” is where questions are asked of the reader to prepare a written response.

In Week 2 – Day 2, you are introduced to the.”SOAP study method of engaging with Scripture.”  SOAP is Scripture, Observation, Application, and Prayer. The study guide also includes poems and prayers from people of different backgrounds such as a bishop, a Christian King and a Christian Author.

Dingman explores the uneasiness of not knowing where your future is heading, but gives reassurance to Christian followers through discussion and studying bible scripture. She discusses the difference between gnosis (what is known-knowledge) and epignosis (what is definitely known-definite and full knowledge).

Laura Dingman’s this I KNOW is a great way to study the Bible and either begin or continue journaling. I recommend to all bible study persons on an individual and or group setting.
