This website is so cluttered I can't make sense out of any of it. I can't even find what Bible study you're talking about for all the titles and mess!!!: :
Please join our inductive bible study of each book of the bible. Starting with Genesis we will study each book a week at a time. Here are some guidelines you may find helpful.
: : 3 steps
: : 1 observation
: : a Become a detective. What are the facts.
: : b Read the whole book aloud in one sitting if possible. For example read the whole book of Ruth at one time.
: : c Whats the big idea?
: : d Ask questions: who? what? where? when? how?
: : e consider the type of literature.
: : f. Be sensititve to the mood/atmosphere of the book.
: : G summarize the main ideas in your own words.
: : 2 Interpretation (exegisis)
: : a Ask the why questions.
: : b Determine what it meant to the original readers.
: : c Becone a time traveler. Consider the historical context.
: : D what cirstance could have led to the writing of the book?
: : E What did the author wish to communicate to the reader of his day?
: : 3. Application (hermemneutics) How does it apply to me today?
: : a The goal of bible study.
: : b Determine the general principles that can be drawn from your study thus far.
: : c Ask yourself if there is an identical, comparable or different situatoion to which this principle may apply today.
: : D prayerfully meditate on these principals and consider:
: : 1 how do these truths apply to my life.

: : 3 how do I plan on carrying out these changes. Be specific.
: : 4. Commit these changes to God in prayer.
