Precept Bible Study

Learn how to study the Bible

Precept is an inductive Bible study that uses a straightforward investigative approach. It is a method that uses observation, interpretation, and application to gain a deeper understanding of God’s eternal, inerrant Word. In this class you'll use this method to study a certain topic or book and, in doing so, you'll learn how to apply this method for any of your independent or group Bible studies in the future.
