What God has said isn't only alive and active! It is sharper than any double-edged sword. His word can cut through our spirits and souls and through our joints and marrow, until it discovers the desires and thoughts of our hearts."
(Hebrews 4:12)
The Bible is the story of God and His interaction with His creation, which He loves. It interprets our world, and helps us understand who we are and what we can become by the grace of God.
The Bible studies on our website have been used in adult Bible classes and study groups to dig into God's word together. Through them the Bible has guided our search for God, a deeper knowledge of Jesus Christ, a continual transformation by the work of the Spirit, and an understanding of God's purposes for us. Use the series and outlines to guide you in personal Bible study and spiritual growth. New studies are constantly added.

The goal of Bible study is not to know more about the Bible or to "cover the material" in the Bible. Nor is it to read through the Bible for the sake of saying you have. Getting into the pages of Scripture is to know the One who authored it. It is to experience the transformation that is possible by the renewing of your mind (Rom 12:2).
Enjoy the journey! It is like no other you have ever been on. Use these resources to help you dig deeper into God's message in Scripture.
"So wherever you go, make disciples of all nations: Baptize them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Teach them to do everything I have commanded you" (Matthew 28:19-20, GW).
Those of us who know Jesus genuinely want to share the wonderful gift we have received with others. Many of us, however, feel inadequate to do so. Use the resources on this page to become equipped to more effectively and confidently share Jesus with others.
This helpful study tool invites a person to read (and even re-read) passages of Scripture and answer questions based on the passages. God's Word speaks for itself, doing its powerful work, and lets the Holy Spirit speak through the words. The study begins with "Coming to Know Jesus," then investigates "Becoming a Christian," and discusses "Living the Christian Life."
This study will impress upon you the importance of sharing Jesus with others, give you a tool for marking your Bible to help as you share Jesus, and provide you with three lessons (primarily from the Book of Mark) to use with others are you share Jesus with them.
This is a step-by-step approach to get into a passage of Scripture and personally apply its truth to your life. As you ask the questions, “What does it say?”, “What does it mean?” and “What will I do?”, the words of the Bible will spring to life in your personal walk with Christ. Use with people new to the Bible to help them discover God's truths for themselves.
