As you consider the three steps of the inductive Bible study method, which of the three do you think will be easiest for you? Do you think you will find any of them difficult? If so, which one(s)?
-
For me, observation will be the easiest, and interpretation will be the more difficult. While it can be enjoyable to look at other translations and sources, sometimes I struggle to know which sources feel the most reliable.
-
sometimes I get looking at words and their meanings, or be dazzled by what happened in the passage and will read a whole passage without really taking it personally as a message for me that moment. I think it will be good for me to learn to apply all 3 steps as a study method.

I think that each step is important but I don’t see one as being more difficult than the other. If you love what you do , you will put the effort into it. It is true for reading the Bible. If you want to understand and grow , you will put the time and research into your reading. It may vary depending on the text or even the chapter.

I think the application, usually the holy spirit bring revelation on what the steps should be

Interpretation will be the most enjoyable. I always find the who what when where why and how part to be tedious. And application will be an act of God, because I can’t do His will on my own.
