Bible study does not have to be boring or intimidating. 

Many believers read the Bible, but do we have a relationship with God through the living text? Is Scripture just words on a page, or is it living and active in your life? 

You may read a passage and wonder:

  • What does this really mean?
  • How do I understand the context?
  • Am I applying this correctly?
  • Where do I even begin?
  •  How do I know if God is speaking to me? 

You do not need a seminary degree to study Scripture in depth. You need simple principles to understand the mindsets of the original authors, our current culture, and how our personal mindsets shape how we read and interpret Scripture. You need practical instruction and tools that will turn reading the Bible from a ritual you are supposed to do into a thriving part of your daily life. 

Goals in this course

  • To understand what the Bible is in the context of our relationship with God.
  • Why is it important to read the Bible in the original cultural and historical context? 
  • How have modern ideologies impacted the church and interpretation of the Bible? 
  • Understand your soul and how your core beliefs shape your understanding. 
  • Learn modern Bible study tools to dig deeper.  
  • Learn how to use the Hebrew Alphabet (Aleph-Bet) to unlock a hidden commentary on the Bible.
  • Understand that God is speaking to you personally and guiding your life.

Rooted in the Word: Basic Bible Study Principles for Deep Roots

Rooted in the Word: Basic Bible Study Principles for Deep Roots

God wants to speak to us deeply through His living Word; He wants a rich relationship with you; and wants you to experience an abundant life. In a world where truth shifts with cultural trends, some truth never changes. That truth is the Bible. However, many believers struggle to understand the Bible and apply it to their lives. Rooted in the Word will give you the tools to understand the Bible, learn to hear God speaking to you personally to guide your life, and discover hidden mysteries through the original language of the text. These things will lead you into a place of soul rest that all of us long for (Jeremiah 6:16, Matthew 11:28-30).
