THE PROBLEM
Too many Christians feel locked out of God’s Word
That quiet fear keeps millions of sincere Christians from one of the most transformative things they could do with their time. The problem isn’t intelligence, education, or spiritual maturity. The problem is that no one ever showed them a clear, repeatable process for opening the Bible and understanding what it actually says.
This book changes that. Six steps, any passage, any believer. That’s the promise.

ENDORSEMENTS
What Bible teachers are saying
I’ve read many books on how to study the Bible and Study the Bible: Six Easy Steps is one of the best. The steps make sense and are well thought out. The structure and writing are easy to follow from the introduction to the basics of study tools to real-world examples of stepping through the book of Titus. Easy to recommend for beginners and seasoned Bible students alike.
