Sensitive to God's Leading
Do you view the people crossing your path each day as a possible divine appointment? If you do, Chuck Swindoll says you can start your days with great anticipation.
It Fits Your Life Well
Chuck explains how a correct interpretation of a passage—and there’s only one—comes before application. But then the number of ways Scripture can be applied is numerous.
What Is It Saying to You?
As satisfying as it can be to unravel the deep meanings behind Bible verses, Chuck says God gave us the Word for another reason. We must keep it in mind both when reading it and when sharing it.
The Ones You Can Trust
Why are there so many translations of the Bible, and which are the best to use? Chuck shares which ones he uses and why and also gives a bit of history behind Bible translations.
It’s Not Cheating
We can greatly benefit from the hours of time and research others have put into studying the Bible. How? By availing ourselves of the kinds of resources Chuck and Rhome mention here.
Find Clues Throughout
Rhome points out how the Bible quotes itself often. Jesus Himself quoted the Old Testament to explain His words. Chuck says the Bible forms a bridge to carry us from the old words to the new.
Follow the Thread
Every word in the Bible is chosen for a reason, so we must ponder over each one. And we learn much from noticing all mentions of a person throughout Scripture to learn their full journey.
Don't Read Too Quickly
It’s possible to miss important details from passages we’ve read the most times. That’s why we must take our time as we read and ask the same basic questions of observation every time.
Bon Appetit!
Chuck explains how they chose the analogy of preparing a meal for their book on studying Scripture. The ingredients in our kitchen have great potential, if we know when to use them.
