How the Study Works

Everyday Objects is a Bible study that uses visual association with objects we see in our daily life to memorize God's word. Very simply:
1. You see an object
2. A word comes to mind (any word, not just 'Spiritual' words), 3. Using a Bible Concordance, you find & study a verse in the Bible that has that word understanding the context & application to your life.
4. Everytime you see that object, you try to recall the verse or the Biblical application to your life.

The study uses things we see everyday to guide us into and remind us of God's Word.
Example:
When you see a coffee pot, you may think of the word morning or cup. You use a condordance to look up verses with the word morning or cup & study the verse--trust me, both those words are in the Bible. You pick one verse & do a study on that verse. Then, through the week, every time you see a coffee pot you try to remember the verse and application. Before you know it, you'll have the verse memorized! The more objects you do, the more verses you'll remember and the more of God's Word you'll be hiding in your heart & mind! It's that easy.

Anticipation

In anticipation of our study, I did the first week's lesson so I could start off our sharing. Without revealing the object in advance, let me just say I am praising the Lord for His faithfulness in revealing His Word through the Holy Spirit! I share this only to encourage you in the Word: My study took me from a word, to a verse, to two chapters I have not studied in depth to this point in my walk. A few words and phrases that really jumped out at me in my Bible and I learned new things while reading my commentary.
So now when I see this object, I'll think of my word, which will lead me to think about all the new things I learned through it in HIS WORD. Be encouraged to dive into the Word too! Can't wait to hear what you learn. :-)
