The Daniel Plan Bible Study Guide: 40 Days to a Healthier Life

This is based on respecting your body as God's temple.

The course was hard. Many times I hated not just this book, but life itself. Ripping the hair off my arm seemed more merciful. Frankly this course should be used as a CIA torture device. Or a way to drive people insane. It really is that awful. Unless you are deviant who enjoys intricate things with no right answers just for the sake of fun debate. Blah ha ha. 🤓😜Either way, don't expect any book on this topic to be a dummy's guide. Stay at a Holiday Inn express. Maybe you'll understand it. This book is likely as good as it's gonna get to simplify this course. My book had about a thousand post its with notes. Why? Well you know the image of a dead horse? Yeah they beat it INTO the ground making explanations. And when you're doing, you're wondering where the day went. I can almost speed read and twenty pages took me two days. That's about a chapter. Why? Well I'd read an except, eat massive chocolates, roam the house like a prison, banged my head, dreamed with my eyes open....Still, the authors tried. One book. One course... You haven't learned a thing. But you can sit and listen to professors have a discussion and understand 10%. You can read a scholarly article and say, hey, I recall that word. I don't know how the heck they did the math, but I know they have nifty computers to do that quantitative research. Hahahahahaha.Read it anyway. If you decide you want a DSW, you'll do research til you croak. Or if you desperately want an answer to some complex puzzle, you'll have to align with a senior social worker and do this. You'll only learn this by doing. And even then, a lifetime of doing and you won't perfect it. But you gotta start somewhere.So yes, I hated this book, mainly because the work was just impossibly hard. But that wasn't the books fault. That was the fault of my hard head, exhaustion and difficult concepts. Now that I'm on the other side, I'll hide the book awhile, forget the agony of it, and enjoy reading scholarly articles with more insight and a frame of reference. I can't judge the authors on the material, only their take on it, and it wasn't bad. I don't know anything about anything still, but I can pretend as if I had stayed at the holiday inn express.

love the study guide! we are using it in our group... very helpful and easy to understand. However the study guide does not indicate nor suggest when to actually begin the 40day diet plan. Focuses alot on the learning portion of the plan, but not the practical... just my opinion. But definitely get it, then just decide when you want to start the diet yourself.

I just completed the first 40 days of the Daniel Plan and I mustsay...I did not drop a lot of weight...only about 10 lbs...but I willsay that weight loss was NOT my primary reason for going on thisPlant Based Style of Eating. I wanted to break my sugar cravings,and learn to look at food differently and I have done both.I now ask myself...before I put anything in my Mouth...Is this Indeedgood food (which is good medicine) for my body? And if it isn't thenI don't eat it. If it was grown on or as a plant it is good food but if itcame out of a manufacturing plant it is not.Do I ever have a piece of birthday cake or a cup of Starbucks coffee ora piece of Chocolate...ABSOLUTELY. This program is NOT a DIET itis a way of life and they highly recommend that you eat great food 90%of the time...which allows you 10% of the time to have those occasionalindulgences. No Binges Please! LOLYesterday, I got back my yearly blood panel results and all my numberswere in good if not great range except for two. #1 My Cholesterol was too low(what? you've got to me kidding?) #2 I still had a slight elevation in my Triglycerides.But my Diabetic Panel was 5.8 (totally under control by food alone) no shots, nomedicine. My kidney and liver functions were great and no proteins were passinginto the blood stream.See...healthy eating makes for healthy people!! I am 62 years old and want to liveas long as I possibly can because I have 3 beautiful grand-children to help raise andI don't want to miss out on a second of it.You too, I am sure have your own reasons to want to live a long life. Don't compromiseyour health or your time on this Earth to accomplish your goals. LIFE IS TOO SHORTAS IS.I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE DANIEL PLAN,PeggyAnn Smith

I love the Daniel Plan - and this is a good study guide. There are good thoughts for discussion and when I used these in a group setting the first time we didn't even get to all the questions.I am using mine again in a group I am teaching and will see how it goes this time.Some of the important stuff is in the back - so you gotta flip back and forth - but that's not a hardship

Great book, filled with awesome information. NOT another diet book. If you are ready to make life changing decisions this plan will show you how.

We're running a Church small group in Plymouth UK and this was needed by everyone. Just a week in but its already helpful with bits in the appendix etc too. Nicely printed and good colour. Can't easily do the course without everyone having one if you want to do it properly with a group as the Plan is designed to include friendship along with faith, food, fitness and focus.

Delivered on time and in excellent condition. An excellent publication we have used in the past and was purchasing extra copies for friends to use.

Great all round book on getting healthy & losing weight. Only downside & not worth giving it less stars is that it's not based upon a traditional Daniel fast & that may cause confusion.

The book arrived much sooner than expected. It was in perfect condition and am really impressed by the quality!Thanks so much for a great product!
