Listen to God
Primarily this is about reading the Bible. If you don’t have your own hard copy Bible, you can access online versions at Bible Gateway. We recommend that you try either The New Living Translation or The Christian Standard Bible. To help one another understand and apply God’s Word to our lives, most churches include some form of teaching here. This may include
A Talk: To get you started, we’ve got a lot of talks available to listen to or to watch
You might want to start with our series on John’s Gospel.
You may also want to use this time to work through the series of video talks on specific topics such as prayer and the Holy Spirit.
Alternatively, this might be an good opportunity to go through First Look together as you introduce other friends and family to Jesus.
Study and Discussion: We often learn best by talking things through together. Why not provide space during your time together to ask each other the following questions about the Bible passage you are looking at.
- What does the Bible passage say? What are the main things that happen or the main points that are made?
- How does the Bible passage help us to know what God is like?
- Does the Bible passage have anything to say that challenges us?
- Does it offer encouragement and comfort?
- What one thing will I do differently as a result of what this Bible passage says?
