The 4 Questions That Make Any Scripture Come Alive

Ever feel like you’re reading your Bible consistently… but your understanding isn’t getting deeper and your life isn’t changing the way you hoped? You’re not alone. In this episode, we’re talking about how to study Scripture (not just skim it), so God’s Word moves from your eyes → to your mind → to your heart → to your actions. Because Bible study isn’t about checking a box, it’s about spiritual formation, building a life that’s rooted in truth, and creating space for the Holy Spirit to renew your thinking. We’ll look at why Scripture calls us to rightly handle the word of truth, why intentional participation matters for spiritual growth, and why “more reading” isn’t always the answer. You’ll learn a practical Bible study method you can use today, how to connect prayer and Bible reading, and how to build a Bible study habit that actually sticks, whether you have 15 minutes or an hour. If you’ve been wondering why your Bible time feels shallow, this will give you a clear, simple path to go deeper. What You’ll Learn: → The difference between reading the Bible and studying Scripture → Why growth requires intentional participation (not passive habits) → How to combine prayer + Scripture for deeper understanding → The 4-question Bible study method you can use with any passage → How to “go deep, not long” in 15–30 minutes → How curiosity (writing questions) unlocks stronger retention and insight → Helpful tools like BiblicalTraining.org and Bible Hub → Why Bible study is formation, not just information (Romans 12:2) Want to learn more about Mark Hummel?
