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.

Coins

Word: Coin
Verse: Luke 21:2 "He also saw a poor widow put in two very small copper coins."
Learning: Several things were interesting in my study: 1.) the word "love" is used with money--very powerful; 2.) the widow's mite is often referred to as singular, but she actually gave 2 mites--she gave all she had; 3.) Jesus noticed the widow's 'small' sacrifice more than the Pharisees 'grandious' offereings.
Application: 1.) Check my motive in everything--God sees the little things with a pure motive over the 'big' things with an impure motive. 2.) Take heed at the power of money 3.) Give everything I have to Jesus.
