Bible Study Methods

The foundation for our individual and corporate Christian life is the Word of God. In it we find all that pertains to life and Godliness. Because of this truth, one must know how to rightly handle what is written on the pages of scripture. Whether we know it or not, we have all been taught how to read God’s Word. Unfortunately, we pick up bad habits without even realizing it. In this 6 week class we will work to learn how to study Scripture. We will learn to determine the author's main point, how it fits in the arch of Scripture then how it applies to our lives today. This class will benefit you in your personal walk, but also as you lead others to a deeper understanding about who God is.
