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)?
-
Th easiest for me would be observation. The difficult one for me would be application because sometimes it is hard to know what to do with what you have learned.
-
Except application can be a bit difficult as I do stumble and fall daily. It is only by grace that we make it after all! But trying to apply the Bible to my life is a daily thing I focus on.
-
Sorry I didn’t mean to add that as a reply but what you said is what I’m thinking too.

Observation ma be the easiest for me but all are essential.
-
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.
