Successful Scripture Study

What do truly successful scripture studiers do in their personal scripture study that is different from therest of us? Do those who have the best experiences with personal study share any common characteristics or skills?

The Fundamentals of Scripture Study course (FDREL 215) draws from research done with successful scripture studiers to present and help develop habits and skills to make personal scripture study more productive and more enjoyable.

This presentation is an introduction to some of the ideas taught in the course. Before viewing the webcast, ponder your own study habits and consider these four misconceptions about scripture study:

  • Good experiences in scripture study are accidental
  • The goal is to finish
  • Scripture is hard to read
  • The form of scripture is an obstacle
