If you want to transform your life, place God’s word in your heart.
So...what exactly is S.O.A.P?
It's an acronym for a Bible reading method with 4 simple steps: Scripture, Observation, Application, and Prayer. Each day, you'll read the assigned chapters in our Bible reading plan below and use this S.O.A.P method to study and reflect. Start with Scripture: Write down a verse that stood out to you in your reading. Next is Observation: Note what you observe as important or interesting about the passage and jot it down. Then, Application: Write down how it applies to your life. Is there a sin to confess, promise to claim, attitude to change, command to obey, example to follow, error to avoid, truth to believe, etc.? Finally, Prayer: Write a short prayer about your reading.
All you need for this study is a Bible (or a Bible App), a notebook or journal, and 15-20 minutes per day. This is a 5-day-a-week reading plan to help you stay on track. By the end of the year, you will have read all of the New Testament, Psalms, and Proverbs!
