Bible STUDY TOOLS
Discover the depths of God's Word! The Bible can seem overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. The best way to begin studying is to spend time in it daily. As a church, we follow a five-day reading plan through the Bible, and we'd love to have you join us. If you want, you can read just the Old or New Testament. Either way, we are expectant for God’s work in our church body as we engage with His Word.

H.E.A.R. Journaling Method
The H.E.A.R. journaling method promotes reading the Bible with a life-transforming purpose. No longer will your focus be on checking off the boxes on your daily reading schedule; your purpose will instead be to read in order to meditate, understand, and respond to God’s Word.

meditating
Psalm 1:2-3 says “But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night. He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers.”
