Reading the Bible can feel intimidating sometimes. But one simple way of studying Scripture is called S.O.A.P. It stands for "Scripture," "Observation," "Application," and "Prayer." We'll show you how—it's easy!
S: Scripture
If you haven't already, read today's passage of Scripture. Then summarize it in your own words.
O: Observation
Read John 4:1–26 again.
- What stands out to you?
- What does it teach us about listening to others?
- What questions do you still have?
A: Application
- What's one way you are struggling to show empathy?
- What does this passage invite you to do differently in how you listen to others?
- What do you think could change about your relationships if you do?
P: Prayer
Spend some time praying about someone you need more empathy for. Talk to God about your opinions that keep you from wanting to understand them better, and ask for boldness to start a conversation. Then, say thank you for all the ways God listens to you.

About this Plan
When music connects with us, we can play a song on repeat and never get tired of it. When Jesus taught his followers what it looked like to live for God, he wanted them to get that same feeling. In this 4-week devotional series from Grow Curriculum, we'll explore the ways Jesus treated people and how we can make loving like Jesus a part of our lives.
