Bible Study Methods: YouVersion

Posted in Bible Study Methods
Some of you know our family has been waiting on the Lord in many things related to the future of our family. Honestly, this is a wonderfully precious place to be. I just love the little surprises He's revealing from time to time, not more than we can handle and just enough to keep us praising Him on a regular basis. However this goes, He will be praised!

Anyway, you are now wondering how this could possibly be related to an entry here at the Walking blog, right? Wonder no more. This is in connection with a church we've known about for some time. It also happens to be one with which my husband will be interviewing soon. (Yay!)

LifeChurch.TV includes in it's mission statement a specific focus on leveraging technology. No, it's not about dabbling in the novelty of it. This is about seeing how very serviceable it can be in the hands of those who love and serve God. So, their technological leverage should not be surprising, since they are so serious about it.

First, you can go to LifeChurch.TV and see how they've used it to structure an online campus (fully interactive, too). That's got it fabulous parts to it to begin with, but then they have other little "hidden nuggets" around the site in addition to that.

I found their little tool called "YouVersion" there, and I'm loving it! Not all that different from some of the CrossWalk.com resources, this is directly tied to the LifeChurch.TV resources and community. As you begin to study, you can use the Bible Reader, select your Bible translation, read your passages, and then read others' thoughts or add your own. I really like it for where I am right now. It's nice that the archived messages are "tied" to their passages, so good teaching is available on some things.

I know this isn't exactly a thorough review, and it's not exactly my normal blog entry. I just thought you might want to know about it.

Have a fabulous weekend, ladies!

Thanks for visiting my blog. I am trying to be more faithful about posting - even if it is something small.
I will try to post photos - that is one of the things I want to learn how to do.
My daughter is showing our beagle in showmanship in 4H - my oldest son worked with the beagle in obedience but decided at the last minute (yesterday!) not to compete at the fair.
