If you want to Dig Deeper

Dr. Toh sent us a good link on how to read the Bible. As James said you need to look at the perfect Law of God intently. (James 1:25)

Dr.Toh writes:
This process helps us to not think or write or share what we want from the Bible (which may be out of context, and perhaps based on our own agenda or thoughts), but to discipline ourselves to study the Bible from the Holy Spirit inspired author's (and from God's) point of view.

This is Dr. Fuller's method that John Piper picked up when he was a young seminary student.
This is a heavy duty method of inductive study.

Here is the link.

This method worked very well when I studied Romans but did not work when I read Psalms.

Can we use this method when we engage in 1:1s or this method is for leaders? This worked for John Piper and John became who he was using this Bible arching method. The question we need to ask is:
Can we use this method for reaching out at the U of I and for the post modern students or we need to develop our own?

Let me hear what your think.
