Application 101 & Hermeneutics 101

We just uploaded two short and sweet guides on how to apply what you learned at Na 2008 and how to read your Bible better. Check them out.

Application 101
After hearing several messages it’s not hard to get lost trying to figure out what to do now that you’re back home. This guide is here to help. It helps you dig into a particular message you want to apply and has five principles to keep in mind as you change your Bible reading: Time, Place, Plan, Memorization, Involving Others.

Hermeneutics 101
hur-muh-noo-tiks is the scholar’s way of saying “the craft of interpreting Scripture.” You’ll find seven questions to ask every Bible passage you come across in order to help you better interpret the passage and a short bibliography of other Hermeneutics resources.  All this on just one page you can print out and keep in your Bible.

So use them. Pass them around. Let God’s Word become your joy and delight.

[A Word to Pastors and Small Group Leaders: These two documents are meant to serve you as your serve your people. They’re great to hand out to those from your group that came to the conference to encourage them to apply what they learned, and they’re short enough not to be intimidating (did we mention that they’re only one page long?).]

Thanks a lot for the Hermeneutics attachment! 

Would anyone happen to have any input about how to use commentaries/concordances in studying the Bible?

Hi,
This is the managing editor of Behold bimonthly (Chinese evangelical magazine, please check our website: http://www.oc.org).
Can I have your permission to translate ‘Hermeneutics 101’ into Chinese and publish it in our magazine?
This would be very helpful for Chinese Christians as well

God bless,
Luke Luo
