Over the years I have found that in order to mature in the faith you need to include daily bible reading into your routine. Not only that but you would do well to incorporate study with your reading. Whether it be with your spouse, family, fellow church members, or by yourself…the studying of God’s Word gives valuable instruction on how to live a faith-filled life. It is important to know the differences between reading and studying the Bible. While reading the Word is good, Bible studies are even better. Studying gives you the opportunity to cross-reference verses, look up the original meanings of text, and compare different stories in the Bible and how they relate to one another.
“They read from the Book of the Law of God and clearly explained the meaning of what was being read, helping the people understand each passage.”
Nehemiah 8:8 NLT
As you navigate the Bible through studies and reading plans you will become more familiar with who God is, the promises He has made to us, and how He has fulfilled them throughout history. Eventually it becomes a book you cannot put down for you come to realize that there is a wealth of knowledge and revelation at your finger tips.
There is no better book than the Bible…
“For the word of God is alive and powerful. It is sharper than the sharpest two-edged sword, cutting between soul and spirit, between joint and marrow. It exposes our innermost thoughts and desires.”
Hebrews 4:12 NLT
As you pray and read, you’ll find yourself being surprised at the amount of wisdom that these pages carry. The words that are inspired by the Holy Spirit will not only comfort you but give you insight into the deeper meanings of life. A life that is founded on Christ and what He has done for us upon the cross.
If you find yourself wanting to dive deeper into the Word, I have taken the liberty of compiling a list online Bible Studies that are readily available for you to start today. There are studies within this list that I have taken part in myself and have found them to not only be edifying but encouraging. All you will need is a Bible in hand in order to begin. I highly recommend that you bookmark this page so you can reference it later. There are simply too many resources to absorb in one sitting.

She Reads Truth is where I would like to study next. I plan on purchasing the study guides so that I can start a mini-library. They are definitely keepsakes.
These are some great suggestions!
Awesome! I hope they serve you well : )
Natalie, This is such a great resource list! I appreciate you telling us know only what will be studied but a little bit about the personality or style of many of the authors. This is important! And I appreciate that they come with independence or accountability so you can pick what you need for that month or time.
Dearest Jennifer,
I am so blessed that you found this post helpful. My heart is to share the word of God with those who may not have known that these studies existed. My hope is that everyone who comes seeking will find.
Thanks a lot Natalie! The list is really helpful. I’m familiar with a few of them. Off to check up some others…
Happy hunting! Thank you so much for stopping in Chiamaka
This post was so helpful & fun. I found a few I like & it makes me wish that I could do all at once. Haha. Thanks again
That truly blesses me Okizia and it’s the very reason I created this post. Many blessings!
I love all of these websites! There’s one missing in my opinion… MyOneThingAlone.com was the first Christian blog that I really immersed myself in and I just love Asheritah! Thank you for putting this list together. God bless!
Thank you for your suggestion! I’m sure there are many more that I have missed so I appreciate you mentioning Asheritah’s blog : )

Great resources, Natalie! Thank you. There are so many people and resources on here that I already love. I can’t wait to dig into some of the others.
I wanted to share an additional resource for womens bible studies which offers both a free version and an extended version for $5.00. It is https://www.hellomornings.org
I have been a facebook group leader since 2013 and have had the opportunity to study the Bible with my particular group of women. hello mornings has three core parts, God, plan and move.
I am not the creator of this site just for clarification.
Hello mornings is set up so if a person chooses to they can do the study on their own, through social media or with their church (IRL groups – In real life)
Thank you for your suggestion Michelle. I’ve approved your comment and I hope it brings more eyes to this study.
I appreciate this post so much! Thank you for your Jesus love and time to share it!
