We are going to try a few different bible study approaches in the next couple of months to give the youth some different forms of study they can use. I believe some of them might be more popular than others. We did a new bible study this evening which was more individual, quiet, one-on-one with God meditative type study. The entire exercise took 30 minutes and the youth were not able to talk, just to follow a guided format. It worked out really well, everyone was focused and quiet and did not disrupt anyone else (except for me when I ran into a chair and made a little noise)
I tried the exercise this morning at home before anyone was awake and then tonight along with the youth. I was surprised by how much faster it seemed to go the second time around. I'm not sure if it was the setting or if it was because it was the second time around, or if I was just more focused. The exercise reminded me of Psalm 46:10-Be still and know that I am God.
Here's to more types of bible study that we can introduce others to so that they may learn that there are many ways to study The Book.
peace&quiet
