Course Description:

Before I developed this course into an online format, I taught it as a private lesson and received remarkable feedback. Here are some testimonials from my previous students:

• "This course has taught me so much that I wasn't aware of previously in my Christian walk, things we don't necessarily learn from church, things you might only learn as a scholar of the bible. From all that I have learned, I now have a much clearer understanding when reading my bible, and I believe this has even improved the quality of my relationship with God, and even more than that, the quality of my prayers." - Lozizwe M.

• "I must say, I am enjoying reading the bible much more than I did before. The knowledge that I am gaining from these courses is helping me to understand the Scriptures much better and it is triggering within me the desire to know more about the Lord. GLORY TO GOD!" - Pulane N.

• "For me this has been the most exciting thing to happen: being able to see what I have been learning in the IW lessons improve my understanding of the word when I am with other people. This has even caused me to want to read my bible more than I have been." - Ntsepase M.

It's a common experience for Christians reading the Bible to be unsure and uncertain as to whether they have understood its message correctly. We often think, "I'll just ask my pastor," or, "Leave it to the professionals to figure out its meaning—whatever they say is what I'll believe." But the reality is that the professionals don't possess some secret gift that's out of reach for you.

With the right training and the right resources, you can learn to read the Bible just like the professionals.

Here's how:

1. Bible reading is hard work: It requires motivation beyond just the desire to read it; it demands effort, thoughtfulness, asking the right questions, seeking answers, and utilizing the right resources.

2. The Science of Bible Reading: Understanding the context, history, culture, and language of the biblical texts is crucial for a foundational grasp of what you're reading. This course will provide you with the necessary principles to build upon.

3. The Art of Bible Reading: Beyond understanding the text, it's about learning how to ask the right questions and interpret the scriptures for yourself. This course will guide you through this process so that you can become adept at discerning the meaning of the Bible on your own.

This course is intended to give you a good foundation of the science aspect of Bible reading, so that you can go on to develop the art side of it. If you actively engage with this course and put into practice the principles you will discover, you will have a great foundation that allows you to become a competent, independent Bible reader.

Remember, being an independent Bible reader doesn't mean never consulting others. It means you'll be able to competently evaluate all of the information you receive and make an informed judgment call as to what a given biblical text means.

So if you want to become an active and thoughtful Bible reader, this course is a great place to begin. Your journey towards a deeper understanding of God's Word starts here. Enroll now and take the first step towards mastering the art and science of Bible reading! 📖✨
