SOAP Bible Study

The SOAP Bible Study section is all about keeping Bible study simple and meaningful. SOAP stands for Scripture, Observation, Application, and Prayer—a method that helps us slow down, reflect, and connect personally with God’s Word. Each study walks us through these four steps, making it easy to understand the passage, apply it to our lives, and respond in prayer. Whether you’re new to Bible study or looking for a fresh approach, SOAP is a powerful way to grow in your walk with Christ.

A young shepherd kneels on a grassy hillside at dusk with eyes closed and hands open in prayerful listening. A wooden staff rests by his side. In the darkening sky above, golden light forms the faint image of a majestic, whispering figure surrounded by clouds. In the distance, a small flock of sheep grazes peacefully across the quiet fields. The scene conveys reverence, obedience, and divine presence. Inspired by SOAP Bible Study: 1 Samuel 15:22.
