If you are a believer
Here are some tips to consider
The Holy Spirit is our teacher
Pray before each session to grow deeper
Avoid distraction don’t miss the action
Pray for remembrance after
Treat all opportunities like coursework
And do your homework
Notate the significant
As simple as it sounds
Don’t neglect to gather around
Weekly opportunities abound
The leader has done the hard work
Simply come as a yearner to learn
Don’t wait too long between spiritual meals
Let your appetite provide guidance
To grow healthily strong
This may be a stretch
But to really internalize
Consider a turbocharge
By teaching His Word
Don’t limit yourself to a tiny little passage
Gather context in depth to learn the intent
My favorite tools are Google Search
For generic scriptural query
(Beware of course of obtaining commentary)
For pinpoint search
Biblegateway is my preference
For firehose ingestion
Get a version in your language
(Even a children’s version
Can provide initiation)
Like a vitamin or prescription
Finish the medicine until it is gone
Definitely read from cover to cover
Saturate satiate satisfy through feasting
Surely finish with meditation
As simple as it sounds
