Ideal for small groups, individuals, or 1-on-1 mentoring Lots of extra white space for journaling Spiral-bound for lay-flat ease of writing When we study the Bible inductively we want to know what the author meant when he wrote to his original audience. This involves reading Bible passages in context and asking questions about the text. The goal is to find the meaning and significance from the text itself. We do this automatically every day when we read news, social media, or even recipes! Not surprisingly, it is also the best way to study God's word. At the beginning of this study you'll find a brief, helpful introduction, including optional Notes for Leaders. This is followed by clear, simple questions that will help you to Observe what is being said, Interpret what Paul was communicating to the original readers, and Apply the Book of Romans in your own life.
