  • 4. R.S.V.P. Responding to God's Word with Prayer

    God's Word is the fuel for our prayers.

    Bible Engagement is actively reading God's Word expecting to respond to it.

    Prayer is the first response we should give to God's Word.

    Responses to God's Word:

    1. Confession - Forgive me for...
    2. Praise or Thanks - Thank you for...
    3. Commitment - I'm going to...
    4. Request - Help me ...

    When we pray after we read God's Word, we will have something to talk about.

  • 3. "Weird, Boring, Ugly" How do I read difficult passages in the Bible?

    How should we read difficult passages in the Bible?

    1. Begin your time in God's Word with prayer, asking the Holy Spirit to help you understand what you're about to read.

    2. Read with curiosity. Dig deep.

    Use a study Bible. Look up words with Bible dictionary.
    Check our biblestudytools.com for some resources to help you dig deep into difficult passages. 

    3. Focus on what you CAN understand instead of what you can't.

    4. Reread the passage. 

    5. You need to be willing to accept that there are some passages you just aren't going to be able to understand.

    Have any questions about a difficult passage that you are reading or about Bible reading in general?

  • 1. Radio Telescopes and Expectation

    We have heard from the creator of all the universe.

    God has spoken to us, and we didn't have to go looking for Him.

    Expectation is reading with pencil or pen in hand.
