5 Bible Studies to Help You Take & Read

Go beyond simply reading Scripture. Slow down, ask deeper questions, and look for Christ at the center of the story.

Jesus Plants His People

The Vine, the Branches & the Fruit

Explore Jesus' teaching in John 15 and what it means to be planted, pruned, broken, abiding, and fruitful in Christ. The study ultimately asks what it means to "bear Christ" rather than simply produce good works.

The Wedding at Cana

Why Did Jesus Save the Best Wine for Last?

Look beyond Jesus' first miracle to the deeper sign John says it reveals—transformation, abundance, grace, and the coming cross.

Where Should I Begin Studying the Bible?

A Guide to Beginning With John

For anyone who's felt overwhelmed about where to start. Explore why John's Gospel can serve as a gateway to understanding Jesus and the rest of Scripture.

The Worst Prophet's Perfect Storm

Why Running From God Leads Straight to Him

Journey through Jonah 1 and explore rebellion, God's disruptive grace, reluctant obedience, and the God who pursues us even when we run.

Christ Has Risen

He Has Risen, Indeed!

Explore Easter through Mary Magdalene, the empty tomb, Emmaus, Christ's wounds, and the crucified-and-risen Christ as one eternal reality.

Five studies. Five invitations to look again.

What might you discover when you follow the story all the way to Christ?
