Just wanted to encourage you all to
consider doing a Christmas or Advent Bible study. In 2013, I did an
Advent study with Good
Morning Girls. The study, Keeping Our Hearts Focused on Jesus,
is still available as a free download, and I wanted to let you know that if you're interested you can head on
over there and get it. Scroll down and click on the book-like image
similar to the illustration above, and the pdf should open right up.
More than just a Bible study, this is an ebook that includes recipes,
Advent activities, and more. I think it will be a blessing to you.
I've mentioned before that I like to use the SOAP method of Bible study, and the studies from GMG use a very similar one. I find this method a real blessing whether I am studying shorter passages or longer ones, so I hope you'll give it a try if you haven't ever done so. Just a reminder that the S is for Scripture -- just write it out -- and the O is for Observation, the A is for Application and the P is for prayer -- concerning how you'll apply this verse or passage, or praise for what it means to you.
I plan to use some of the passages from this study for my Sunday Scripture posts on both blogs throughout December. I hope you will follow along and enjoy!
