Gentle and Lowly Study Guide

Dane Ortlund is an excellent author. His Gentle and Lowly book is a must read for anyone who has truly walked on this earth and wondered if God really loves them. (The answer is YES) Ortlund’s style is similar to the Heavely Father’s in humble and loving approach, he shows how God’s grace and infinite love covers all. If you want to truly understand how much God loves all of his children, not matter how bad they have been, READ THIS BOOK. It is a must read.

Best book I have read in a long time! If you are going back and forth between getting the book or not getting the book - get the book.

This book helps clear up the myth that God is an angry God. No, just the opposite. He wants to heal and care for YOU. Often times I think we focus all the opposition Jesus faced/dealt with. But this book focuses on the response of Jesus to the crowds. People followed him in large crowds, even sinners and tax collectors enjoyed him as a dinner guest. Why? Because at his heart Jesus was gentle and lowly and healed many many people, and fed thousands, and taught people that mercy and compassion were supposed to be tops in His kingdom. Great book, especially for new believers who still think God is some grumpy figure. No, He wants to give his people peace in the midst of a fallen world! He wants to restore the fallen world and remove any stumbling block.

I think this is a must-have companion with such a life-changing and thought-provoking book

10 questions per week. Perfect for my small study group to drum up conversation.

The book, Gentle and Lowly, is amazing....and the study guide is good as a springboard for answering its questions and getting into good discussion. Not the best guide, but definitely helpful. THank you!

I heard my friends talk about this book. They loved it. So, it was my turn to take it home to the place where we spend 5 months out of the year. I started reading the first few pages. I wanted to underline sentences , but because it was not my book, I didn’t dare to do that. So……. I decided to buy the book AND the study book and am planning to use this as a study book for our church small group in the place where we live in the winter.

I’ve so enjoyed reading this book. Beautifully written and thought provoking.
