Pour Over the Passage & Paraphrase {Intentional Conversation}

We are continuing our series: How to Have an Effective Bible Study. This series is based on the breakout session at True Woman 2012 by Priscilla Shirer called, The 5 P’s of Bible Study. You can listen to the entire message here (just scroll to the bottom and find the breakout sessions).

Today, we’re talking about the second “P” – Pour over the passage and paraphrase! Don’t forget to check out the free printable at the bottom to take with you.

Pouring over the passage and paraphrasing is crucial to setting the foundation for receiving His truth! You can’t rush through this process. This is why we do bite-sized chunks! 

Need some help remembering all 5 P’s? We do too! Just click the picture below to open in a new window. Then, CLT + P (Command + P on a Mac) and the picture will print beautifully. Just stick it in your Bible or journal to have on hand. We’ll explain all 5 steps over the course of the next several weeks.


Come back next week for the third “P”: Pull out the Spiritual Principles

  1. Love this! I especially like reading a passage in several different translations. It really helps me get a fuller understanding of what I’m reading. Thanks for sharing this with the Thrive @ Home Link-Up. I’m really enjoying this series!
