Bible Reading

We want you to be sold out to Jesus Christ. Being sold out to Jesus is a life-long journey and we are committed to helping you along the way. It is our desire to equip and empower you to be and do all God has for you. That starts with the person of Jesus Christ. We find Jesus most clearly in the Word of God. If reading the Bible is familiar to you - great - hop right in! If you’re new to the Bible, we encourage you to use the SOAP daily devotional process. SOAP is an acronym: Scripture, Observation, Application, Prayer. While studying, write your thoughts down in a journal. Journaling is an excellent way to record and process what God has spoken to us. And don’t forget to share what you’re learning. One way we grow as a body of believers is to share insights from God’s Word with each other.

SCRIPTURE

Take your time reading each chapter and allow God to speak to you. Look for a verse that particularly spoke to you and write it in your journal.

OBSERVATION

What do you think God is saying to you in this scripture? Ask the Holy Spirit to teach you and reveal Jesus to you. Paraphrase and write this scripture down in your own words in your journal.

APPLICATION

Personalize what you have read, by asking yourself how it applies to your life right now. Write how this scripture can apply to you today.

PRAYER

This can be as simple as asking God to help you use this scripture, or it may be a greater insight on what He may be revealing to you. Remember, prayer is a two-way conversation, so be sure to listen to what God has to say and journal about it.
