Are you ready to take your Bible study to a whole new level? Imagine a process that not only enhances your understanding of Scripture but also draws you closer to God’s boundless goodness. While there are numerous effective frameworks out there—like S.O.A.P, A.S.K, P.R.A.Y, and G.R.A.C.E—today, I want to introduce you to something truly special.

I’m excited to share the H.E.A.R.T framework with you, the approach I’ll be using in all of Paul’s Handkerchief courses from now on. Why H.E.A.R.T? Because it goes beyond mere study to truly connect with God. This framework focuses on what matters most: your heart. It’s not just about how well you know the Bible but about how deeply you love God and align your life with Him.

Get ready to dive deeper, experience His goodness like never before, and transform your Bible study into a journey of heartfelt connection.

This is how H.E.A.R.T works:

1. H: Highlight — Choose a meaningful verse or passage from the Bible that resonates personally with you.

2. Explore & Expand — Dive into the passage by exploring its context, key details, and notable themes. Then, expand the meaning by paraphrasing it in your own words to connect with it more deeply. For example, you might replace character names with your own name.

3. A: Apply — Think about how this passage speaks to your life and how it can inspire positive changes or actions.

4. R: Respond — Reflect on your personal response to the passage and consider any commitments or changes you’d like to make.

5. T: Talk About It — Discuss your insights and questions with God, thanking Him for His guidance. Then, talk about the passage with others and invite their perspectives to deepen your understanding.

Conclusion

As you embark on this transformative journey with the H.E.A.R.T framework, you’ll find that Bible study becomes more than just an academic exercise—it evolves into a profound experience of spiritual connection and growth. By integrating Highlight, Explore & Expand, Apply, Respond, and Talk About It into your study routine, you’re not only enriching your understanding of Scripture but also nurturing a deeper, more personal relationship with God.

Embrace this approach with an open heart and a curious mind, and watch as your Bible study transforms into a dynamic exploration of God’s Word. The H.E.A.R.T framework will guide you in discovering new insights, making meaningful applications, and engaging in heartfelt conversations. So, get ready to dive in, connect more deeply, and let God’s boundless goodness flow into every aspect of your life.
