From Reading to Understanding: Learning to Study the Bible - Part 2 (Open the Book — Lesson 4)
Pastor Matt Hodge (Discipleship Pastor) - 2 Timothy 3:10-17 (2 Timothy 3:10-17; Psalm 119:18)
Do you ever open your Bible and feel unsure where to start—or wonder if you’re really understanding what God is saying?
In this lesson of Open the Book, we continue our practical series on studying Scripture. Using 2 Timothy 3:10–17 as our guide, we explore how to move from simply reading the Bible to truly understanding it, framing passages in context, interpreting them faithfully, and applying God’s truth to everyday life.
Whether you’re a new believer or a seasoned Christian, this lesson equips you to approach God’s Word with confidence, clarity, and a heart ready to obey.
Open the Book is your guide to letting Scripture lead, correct, and transform you one passage at a time.
Series description:
We live in a world overflowing with voices—self-help books, podcasts, influencers, trends, and opinions promising wisdom, direction, and clarity for life. Yet with all this noise, people are more confused, anxious, and spiritually unanchored than ever.
This new year, we’re returning to the one place God has promised to speak with authority, truth, and life: His Word.
Open the Book is a four-week journey into the Scriptures—why we need them, how to read them, and how God uses them to shape us. Instead of chasing guidance everywhere else, we will rediscover the wisdom, comfort, correction, and hope found in the pages of the Bible.
When we open the Book, we open our lives to the voice of God.
When we open the Book, we find what our hearts have been searching for.
When we open the Book, we find the way to live.
This series will teach us not only how to read, meditate on, and study the Scriptures, but why they are the most reliable guide for every step of the year ahead.
All the direction you need for life is in the Book—so let’s open it together.
