HOW TO DIG DEEPER INTO GOD'S WORD: how I study my bible in-depth bible study/study the bible with me

[@ShalomDove]

“Is this interesting or am I just nerding out?” BOTH. 💜💜💜

[@Andi.Plans2]

I absolutely love and need the "nerdy" stuff you post!!!! Please make more!!!

[@HowtoFaithALife]

Yay! Okay! I love getting “nerdy” too! Is there any particular topic you’re interested in?

[@HS-ml8dx]

@@HowtoFaithALife If I may chime in: Healing, How to Witness to Unbelieving Family members (seems like they're more difficult than strangers) and Spiritual Warfare, please. 😊

[@robindoyle2875]

I am in my 50s and I've been a Christian since I was nearly 16. I am just now really digging really deep into what the Word really says, the intent of Scripture. Everything is becoming more clear to me now. I appreciate your videos! I love nerding out on Scripture!

[@jillsailors8850]

1. Not too nerdy 2. Love your style 3. You’re straw is upside down 😂 Seriously love that you are able to ignite the fire of the love of scripture for me and removing the fear to journal my bible. Recently found you! New fan!!

[@HowtoFaithALife]

LOL MY STRAW WAS UPSIDE DOWN?! Too funny! Welcome to the family, thank you for your kind words! :)

[@ButterflyDreams31]

Ahhhh. I’m so glad you commented about the straw. 😂😂 Every time she took a sip, I looked to see if she realized it.

[@Kali08012]

Timestamp 6:15, I love the nerding out trails! I actually would like more in depth studies, everything scholarly! I love digging deep!

[@redrosecottage]

I loved the message of study scripture for yourself, not to fully rely on others' interruptions. Now I want to go to seminary too!

[@HowtoFaithALife]

aimee k hehe! I’m glad I made SOME KIND OF SENSE! Haha

[@bobbiefraine3394]

Our Pastor always starts his teachings by saying, first, “Open your Bible, phone, scrolls or whatever you have and if you don’t have a Bible, pick a free one up at the Guest Relations Desk.” Then he’ll remind us not to trust him, but to READ FOR OURSELVES! Never believe anything except the Word of God! 😊

[@harihasfaith3402]

This is the video that made me follow you and get notifications. I love this series and the bible journaling. As a new believer with no one to ask or guide me physically your videos have really helped me. Thank you and keep posting 😊

[@HowtoFaithALife]

Wow, that's so encouraging to hear!

[@cherylworthington1683]

I just found your channel, as I’m just started to dig deeper into Gods Word. And this is all gold! I first started out trying to read the whole bible in a year, but I’m a slow reader and I forget what I just read so I felt like I wasn’t getting anything from what I was reading. So I started reading a chapter a day to dig deeper into it and I’m learned more. So happy for videos like yours that can help me learn more! thank you! I know you posted this months ago, but it’s helping me learn!

[@HowtoFaithALife]

YAY! I am so happy to hear that this helped! Praise the Lord!

[@rebekahmackenzie]

I love the nerdiness of this video! You're right. Someone needs to talk about it. And youtube's free. Thank you Lord for internet/youtube access. Love how you talked about the Proverbs. I totally agree with you on don't always remember what you were first taught about the Bible. I am learning that I have taken verses out of context. Totally understand what you are saying.

[@HowtoFaithALife]

Rebekah Mackenzie yes! Thank you Lord for the internet! I’m glad I make sense! :) and I am glad you like the nerdy-ness! Hehehe!

[@ThankfullyRedeemed3]

What you are doing for everyone is absolutely wonderful, Faith! I am watching (out of order) all of your videos and learning so much about how to study the Bible because you are SO RIGHT...as you said in one of your videos, women are not taught how to study the Bible like men are. At least I haven't been and I've been raised a Christian, went to Christian school and started college at a Christian college and am JUST NOW at 52 learning how to study the Bible and 'Dig Deeper' because none of those places taught me how including churches I've attended. I didn't try to figure it out myself either, so that's on me, but God bless you & all those like you that are teaching people how to do this to help us how to 'Eat The Word' and draw us closer in our walk with Jesus. :)

[@dailybibleverses5898]

THANK YOU I LOVE THESE. God bless!

[@courageouscallahan]

Please stop doubting yourself. If God has put a video on your heart to make, you literally can't say the wrong thing. (: He is your guide through the spirit. Just breathe.

[@danab398]

This is so amazing! Thank you for sharing all your hard work. I have been bingeing your videos and am learning and growing with every one. I believe your perspective is especially important for ladies to see that it is not only acceptable but profitable for women to be true disciples and students of the Word of God. What a fantastic example! ❤️

[@kirarobinson128]

Interesting and nerdy, and it is wonderful! Thank you for sharing information that would otherwise be inaccessible for everyone: I don't have the time or funds to go to seminary myself - I have been called in a different direction. The time and effort you put towards filming and editing this content is not lost on me - it is very much appreciated!!! I have not watched all of your videos yet (I just discovered you two days ago), but my request for more nerdiness would be to delve deeper into the topic of navigating false prophets. It seems to me that the last 5-10 years there has been a dramatic increase in the number of people teaching scripture who are not really teaching truth, and learning how to navigate that minefield would be amazing - I do not want to be led astray. I realize that scripture is what I lean back on, I am mostly referring to the supporting books, videos, and online resources we may use to study our scripture to better understand it more. For instance, there are a lot of commentaries out there, but I have a feeling there may be quite a few that have more opinion than truth behind them - how can I discern which is which? I appreciate all you have done, and I realize this question and comment might be a long shot for a video. Thank you again for all you have done and all I have learned from you so far. I am just beginning!

[@tonikirk5493]

YAY!🎉 Bring on the “nerdy”!

[@serenitys4532]

I really love these videos. Ive read the Bible for a long time, but its always been boring to me because 1 i wasnt reading it properly, and 2 i didnt know how to make them fun. Your videos solve both of these issues, so thank you!

[@McKinneyJ23]

Thank you!!! That’s all, just thank you. Now I’m about to binge all your videos.

[@nitaaponte2260]

You just don’t know how important your videos are!! I strongly believe that God is seeing a need and many people and he is using you as his instrument to feel that need! Carry-on and do God‘s will!

[@HowtoFaithALife]

Wow! Thank you for taking the time to type that kind comment!

[@bethanyhall1524]

I love how you talked about spending so much time on a verse to have true understanding! I love that! I do that often. I went through 1 John 3 times in a year and learned new things each time. It's one of my favorite books of the Bible now.

Thank you for your video. In truth church does not teach HOW to study the Word effectively. This is why we remain ignorant and fall into error.

Hi Faith. I ran across your channel last night and have watched several of your videos. I'm really enjoying your teaching gift and personality. I like your breakdown of scriptures and explanations alot. I just started by own channel a few months ago to teach bible study/prayer/testimonies. Having a channel is so much work, but I'm hoping people enjoy it. Watching yours encouraged me to keep mine up cuz I was feeling like a failure lol since I don't have many subs yet. Anyways thanks for your hard work from another Christian youtuber.

I also teach a Bible Study class which requires reading & studying. I also work a full-time job. I love the Lord, but I’m so overwhelmed. What can I do?

Thoughts on women’s hair and head covering?

[@HowtoFaithALife]

In the passages, it seems pretty clear the Paul is referring to the cultural context of the time- while the women were living in their newfound Christian freedom to no longer need to wear head coverings, it actually HURT their testimony because prostitutes were the only ones who DIDN’T wear head coverings in that day and time. So, based on my studies on scripture, it seems like those passages Paul was more concerned with the testimony and witness of the church than enforcing any Christian dress code. But, nonetheless, I love my sisters who disagree with me and can understand the confusion and history around the issue. I definitely think it’s an honorable thing to do, which comes from a good good heart, but not necessary. Hope that makes sense! But what do you think? I’d be happy to hear your thoughts even if they are completely opposite of me!

Scripture can definitely apply to our day to day! We just take into consideration the intended message from the author, context, etc. to make sure we are being faithful to the text and not just faithful to what we want to find out of it!

Not sure where to put this question. How would you explain the difference between a Holy War and a Divine War. Can you get an answer for me

[@thaddeusdoyle6170]

Video corrupted about three quarter way through - possibly my computer, possibly youtube. Hope you don't mind if I ask you an occasional question. Incidentally I have given thumbs up to many of your videos, and admire what you are doing. In this one you stress Sola Scriptura. But if you adhere to Sola Scriptura, how do you know that there are 66 books in the Bible and how do you know which 66 books should be in the Bible?

[@passionforjesusministries5205]

Faith, where do you find information about the setting of a bible story; you said about Mathew 6; I did not know that those people were living in poverty because they were 50% taxed. Commentary? Study bible?

[@cynthiadrepaul1987]

Are you allowed to teach in your church?

[@HowtoFaithALife]

No, I my denomination does not ordain women or permit them the role of teaching elder. I'd be curious to know if your denomination does!

[@cynthiadrepaul1987]

How to Faith A Life I attend a non denominational church and the Pastors wife and pastor alternate days in which she preaches. We have had women come and teach the word also. This topic has been something that has drawn my attention for several days. I’ve heard arguments from every side and breakdowns of Greek words and their meanings. Those oppose to it were usually men. Those for it were usually women. It would be nice to hear it from your perspective.

[@HowtoFaithALife]

Cynthia Drepaul fewffff it’s a tough topic. I’ll pray about if I should share my opinion and start planning a video... I’ve been thinking about sharing about it for a while but haven’t known if I should! It’s a HEAVY subject! I’ll be 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@cynthiadrepaul1987]

How to Faith A Life I agree with you wholeheartedly this topic is a major one. The church of Christ is so divided and I believe that this topic is one that causes division along with the doctrine of the Trinity and many others. My pastor once told me that it's okay not to agree to everything because the Apostels themselves had many disagreements on certain topics. Do you feel that women preachers present an issue to salvation?

[@HowtoFaithALife]

Cynthia Drepaul no, I don’t think that female pastors cause an issue with salvation or anything like that and I totally agree that it’s okay to not agree on every. single. thing!!!! It’s hard because Pentecostals and Catholics are the MAJORITY of the church worldwide. I am part of the minority. I need to respect and love my brothers and sisters in the faith and not make assumptions! A lot of times we find that we agree on a lot more than we’d think we would with believers of another denomination! I truly think it’s serious spiritual warfare where Satan is trying to divide the church and take the attention off where our REAL battle is.
