Do you long for a relationship with God, but feel lost when you open your Bible, not even knowing where to begin? Do you sometimes wonder how it’s possible for a 2,000 year-old book to be relevant for our lives today? Or perhaps you begin each year with a resolution to read through the Bible, only to give up in frustration, wandering about somewhere in the "wilderness" of the book of Numbers? Or do you read passages of Scripture and find that only moments later you can't even remember what you just read? Or do you doubt whether it's even possible for you to understand God's Word, since you're not a pastor or Biblical scholar? If any or all of these questions describe you, then take heart, for you are about to embark on a journey called "Inductive Bible Study", one that has the potential to radically transform your life as you study God's Word.

Course participants will discover:

• Learn the basic skills necessary for reading and understanding and applying the Bible to your life
• Learn the basic methods for interpreting the Bible
• Gain confidence that you can read and understand the Scriptures on your own
• Gain a deeper desire to know God through the study of His Word

Meets: Sundays, 9:45 a.m. West Campus, Room 102, April 13 through June 15 with breaks on Mother's Day and Memorial Day weekend.
