How to Study the Bible

What a privilege it is to have our own copies of the Scripture. To have God’s Word in each of our hands is something many previous generations did not get to experience. We know that understanding God’s Word is essential to growing in knowing who God is and becoming more like Jesus, but sometimes studying the Bible can seem a little mysterious. How do I understand what’s being talked about? How do I rightly interpret Scripture? How does this apply to me today, or does it? In this study (originally recorded in the Winter of 2025) you will learn a Bible study method, as well as numerous tools that can be used for you to dig into Scripture. Whether you are new to studying the Scriptures, or have been doing so for decades, we hope you can use these resources to grow in how to study the Bible so you can grow in knowing our great God!
