I am using this book in the writing of my doctoral project on spirituality and spiritual disciplines. Though the focus of the book is the educational philosophy derived from Proverbs 1-9, Estes' observations and conclusions can help any educator trying to flesh out "real-life" applications in any Bible curriculum, New Testament or Old. This book will remain an invaluable part of my library for many years to come! D. B. Srygley
