Faith Matters: Explorations
Mini #065
Scholars throughout the centuries agree that the Bible is one of the most fascinating books to exist. Yet for many of us the Bible can seem complex and it can be hard to relate its contents to our lives today. Often people avoid more difficult books, focusing instead on the areas that are easily understandable.
God created the Bible in its entirety–selective reading is like reading just one chapter of a book or seeing one scene of a movie–you will likely gain some knowledge, but lose the context. When we take the time to truly delve into the Bible and begin looking at the context, the times, the people and the places we can find captivating events and people, many facing experiences we can relate to.
In this Faith Matters Study we work through how to deepen our knowledge of Scripture by applying techniques, tools, prayer and resources to work through a book in the Bible.
Note: This Faith Matters Study teaches a series of steps that can be applied to help you explore the book of your choosing. This study will be available January 10, 2009.
