The Making OfSample

Want an easy-to-remember way to read and study the Bible? No matter which passage of Scripture you're reading, ask yourself these three questions: "What?" "So What?" "Now What?" We'll show you how!

WHAT? What is this passage about?

What kind of difficulties do you see described in this passage?

SO WHAT? Why does it matter?

• Why do you think Jesus found it important to point out how we might be treated?
• What explanation might the passage give for the difficulties we face?

NOW WHAT? What should I do about it?

• When was a time in the past you saw yourself grow as the result of a difficult situation?
• What's a current challenge God might use to grow your character?
• What would it look like for you to lean into that challenge? How could you ask God to help you embrace what's painful or frustrating to bring about good in your life?
