This is part five of a multi-part series for women on how to study the Bible on your own. You don’t need a book, a Bible study, or someone else’s opinion: you need a Bible and the Holy Spirit.

You’ve heard these verses, and read them on your own, countless times. How do you dig a little deeper?

But the why is why people are afraid to dive into Scripture on their own. Don’t be! You can do this! If the verse itself doesn’t tell you why it’s in the Scriptures (like I Chronicles 26:3, for example), a verse near it will (I Chronicles 26:19).

One caveat, here, sisters: do not just drop open your Bible, point your finger, and say, “This! This is what I’ll study!” It doesn’t really work that way.

How does a woman study the Bible for herself? Part one of my new series begins today!
