How it works

One passage, a connected study

Start in the Bible reader and choose a verse or passage. You can make a note about it, add it to a mind map, or create a Scripture flashcard. Each saved item keeps its connection to the passage, so your study has a reference you can return to.

You choose what to make. Reading a passage does not require you to fill every tool or follow a fixed sequence. A short observation may be enough for today; a question worth exploring can become a longer study later.

  1. 01 Read Choose a verse or passage in the Bible reader.
  2. 02 Write Make a note about it.
  3. 03 Connect Add it to a mind map.
  4. 04 Remember Create a Scripture flashcard.

Worked example

Study note · John 3:1–21

What might you write after reading John 3:1–21?

A useful note can distinguish what the passage says, the questions you still have, and a response you want to consider. Our worked example follows the conversation with Nicodemus, records the passage’s repeated themes, and shows the references behind its summary.

See the completed John 3:1–21 study note. Use its structure on paper or adapt it to your own digital notes.

A saved note titled “John 3:1–21 — new birth, belief, and light”, tagged john and questions: its reference and observation, a Scripture block of John 3:16–18 with each verse numbered, its question and next step, and the Gospel of John collection it belongs to.

Verse of the day Saturday, October 24

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
