All,
Quite a few people who frequent this site have found considerable benefit in reading and applying Gordon Fee and Doug Stuart's little book, "How To Read the Bible for all it's Worth". As a primer, this book is without peer.
Eventually, however, people will want to progress to the next level. With such in mind I recommend Duvall and Hay's, "Grasping God's Word", published by Zondervan. What distinguishes this book is that it progresses through the actual processes involved in "interpreting" the various parts (and genres) of Scripture. This book seeks to teach method; such that enables the average Christian to translate meant into means, and sense into significance.
It's very good at what it does, and it's pitched at roughly 1st year university level. I highly recommend it to those who wish to grapple with God's Word in an authentic manner.
God bless,
Ian
