You may find helpful Paul Sullivan's guide of best practices for leading interactive Bible studies. Paul (a pastor, professor, father, and grandfather) wrote it from decades of experience in the congregation, classroom, and home. Additionally, basic principles of exegesis will lay a solid foundation for learning in truth.
Active learning involves participants discovering answers through guided exploration. These are free Bible studies for growth; they are interactive Bible studies plunging you into Scripture... and your study group into discussion. Spiritual growth doesn't end with trusting Jesus as our Savior; it begins there! Mature obedience flows out of love: God's love for unlovable us. Knowing better who he is and what he does helps us grow better to love, think, and live like him.
Additional printable and onscreen Bible studies will be added as they become ready. Send an email to suggest topics, ask questions, share comments, or request notification when new material is posted!

"Words of God"
Bible Studies
This series focuses on short phrases God speaks that are well worth committing to memory. Just two pages long and accessible, each study aims to help us understand and rely on the power of God's simple truths. His power enables us to live godly lives, walking in Jesus' footsteps.
Begin with the Bible study to hear what the Lord says; then consider meditating on the focal verse. Perhaps you absorb God's words well by writing down a verse to memorize during the week—or by writing poetry or even composing a hymn. Or try keeping a prayer doodlebook, letting your drawings connect the people and events of your life with these words of God. Example: If praying over the verse "Be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus," you may find that your art includes names of loved ones who need strengthening. Or you might draw a tall, fruitful tree growing out of the words "be strong." Ask yourself why your art looks the way it does, handing your deepest needs and thanks to the One who answers prayer.
Speak to God about what you discover during such meditations with confession, in pleading, in faith and praise... always with thanksgiving.
Hard Questions
Bible Studies
This challenging, truth-seeking series boldly brings our difficult questions to God. For Jesus himself says, "If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free" (Jn 8:31–32).
