Lessons
In this series, Michael DeFazio offers guidance on how to read the Bible more effectively to hear God's voice. It begins by setting the right goals and emphasizes the importance of reading with humility, arguing that character is as crucial to understanding the Bible as the method. The series then advocates for meticulous attention to detail and understanding the author's flow of thought by studying the context. Additionally, it stresses the value of familiarizing oneself with the historical background and reading each passage in light of the entirety of Scripture. Recognizing the relevance of genre sensitivity, the series also underlines that all principles apply to each genre, albeit not always in the same way. The final lesson emphasizes the necessity of living out what is learned from the Bible, stating that spiritual maturity is not gauged by knowledge alone but by how well one lives.
