It's imperative that fathers and husbands be good students of the Word.
Imperative.
There are proven ways to study the Bible that you should know. Reading the text is a first step. Then you need to interact with it!
Go to the page of helps for Donald Whitney's classes at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. Check out the resources under the section titled "Files related to meditation on Scripture" -- terrific stuff here for you:
* Questions to ask as you study a verse or passage -- based on Philippians 4:8 and from Joseph Hall
* Methods of Meditation
* Meditation mapping
* How to organize times of silence and solitude
* Praying through Scripture (alone, or with a group)
I've been experimenting with mind mapping as a way of organizing my thoughts and notes -- very helpful! (If you'd like free software to do this, I recommend FreeMind.)
And here's a free bookmark with the questions to dive into Scripture based on Philippians 4:8 and Joseph Hall.
Recommended!
The study you did yesterday or last year was good. What Bible study will you do today? And how can you teach your children to study the Word?
