No Bible study is ever a waste of your time. If it doesn't bring you what you want specifically, it teaches you more on the macro level.
(S)he who finds their own Gems comes alive to Bible study. Capture the thrill of digging deeper in God's Word and you will never be the same.
The quality of your Bible study is set by the questions you ask yourself. The more honest & real the questions, the more you'll grow.
God doesn’t love you more because you had a longer Quiet Time or spend time in deeper Bible study. He just loves you unconditionally.
Linger long and often in his presence. Meditate on his grace. Ponder his love. Memorize his words. Study His Word.
To do good Bible study you need to follow the author's thread or point they are making. Don’t stop too soon.
