10 Ways To Apply Your Bible Study Into Your Daily Life
The Bible isn’t just a book; it’s a blueprint for us to take and learn to apply in our day-to-day lives. God never intended for us to only use His Word on Sunday mornings. He wants us to dive into the Bible and learned to apply what it says in our daily lives. We shouldn’t only be turning to it during the hard moments of life. It’s a beautiful love story that teaches us how to live in a Heavenly way while on the earth. So if you find yourself feeling like it is hard to actually take what you are learning and apply it in your life, then continue on for some easy starter ideas.
