|
 Bible study is a vital part of Spiritual formation. The Bible is fascinating, rich, and diverse, with powerful stories about God and his people. But as interesting as the Bible is, knowledge is not the end goal.
Jesus said that the Scriptures point towards him. By reading and meditating over Scripture, and then applying it to our lives, we seek to become more and more like our savior, Jesus Christ.
