The Holy Spirit and Bible Study

The Holy Spirit and Bible Study

What is the role of the Holy Spirit in our Bible studies? Who is he? Christians often talk about inviting him to be a part of study, but what should we expect from the Holy Spirit in this context? How do we know when he is guiding vs us leading? I have invited Pastor Matthew Tinkham Jr. (MDiv and PhD candidate) to help us understand the personhood of the Holy Spirit and his role as part of the Trinity. We also answer questions about what to expect when the Holy Spirit is invited into our Bible study. Find episode notes and more at www.biblehowto.com

Plus, we discuss planning to share our testimony. So, you see, planning is more than setting aside time! Find PDF notes and more at biblehowto.com

Bible How-To: Study - Lindsay's Testimony

During this break in our usual content, I thought it would be valuable to share my personal testimony. My story is a bit messy. It was hard to tell (I am sure you will notice in my slower, measured speech). But, I believe that it is important for me to share what God has done in my life! It is important to share that Jesus still has power to save! It is also important to show that Christians aren't perfect. We all need a Savior. I hope my story will inspire you to search the scriptures to find the loving Father that I have found!

Lens of Love: God's Character
