Bible Study
Clear, careful studies that help you read the Bible for yourself and see what God is truly like.
Why Study the Bible This Way?
Many people read a single verse on its own and guess what it means. These studies take a different road. We let the words around a verse lead the way, because the setting of a verse is the best guide to its meaning. We look closely at the key words the writers used, always with their English meaning beside them, and we check each idea against the rest of the Bible.
Through it all, one thing stays fixed. God is good, He never changes, He is present everywhere, and He has no favourites. Every study is written in plain, simple English, so that anyone who wants to understand the Bible can follow it.
