Bible Study

Problem

What is the purpose of reading and studying the Word of God?

Premise

Scripture instructs and transforms, as it reveals God’s nature and purposes.

Philosophy

Studying God’s Word equips you to live in alignment with God’s will, strengthens your faith, and enables you to face life’s challenges with wisdom and courage. Growth in godliness is tied to reading and studying the Word of God.

Scripture is the foundation for understanding who God is, His will, and how you should live in alignment with His character. Without studying the Word, growth in godliness is superficial and unsustainable.

You are challenged to hear the Word, believe the Word, become the Word, and obey the Word of God.
