What books do you suggest for Bible study methods ...
I'm exploring words used in books intended to teach the average Christian how to read the Bible - trying to see how often they use words that the average high school graduate would not be expected to know.
For myself, I think of books such as The Blue Parakeet: Rethinking How You Read the Bible OR How to Read the Bible for All Its Worth OR Torah through Time OR The Hermeneutical Spiral OR …
What would you recommend to a high school graduate who walked up to you?
Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

Here is Chuck Swindoll’s own version of Living by the Book where he shows you how to apply the principles learned there. He actually sat at the feet of Howard Hendricks to learn his method.
There are audiobook versions for both books!DAL

Would the Youcat Bible be helpful?
Sorry, I only saw after posting that you requested some other Youcat resources before. I added a votable idea.

I was thinking of How to Read the Bible for All Its Worth also. A great book. One that all Bible interpreters should read.
