How to Study the Bible

How to Study the Bible is a class-based study to help disciples learn bible study principles. It meets every-other-week, and is only open to students who have completed Personal Discipleship first.

It is designed to teach students biblical principles for bible study. As a result, students will be able to ‘rightly divide’ God’s word through rules of bible study such as context. Hands-on application will be made regularly through assignments and exercises to practice the principles learned in class sessions.

A Ministry Training Class

How to Study the Bible is part of our Ministry Training advanced discipleship training. We believe God has called the local church to equip disciples for ministry in their church and community, and that is what Ministry Training is designed to do.

Ephesians 4:12
For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:

What Will I Learn?

  1. Students will demonstrate an ability to explain and use the rules of bible study.

  2. Students will demonstrate a basic knowledge of bible study tools.

  3. Students will develop an ability to identify and communicate general context and applications within any book or passage in scripture.

  4. Student will gain a basic understanding of dispensations, kingdoms, and other important divisions and distinctions for proper biblical exegesis.

 

WhO Is It For?

While we want everyone in our church to learn How to Study the Bible, we want them to first complete Personal Discipleship. If you are new, start there! Have questions about discipleship? Please contact us!
