Angela and I are so excited to unveil our James Book Club! During this 12 week study we are going to be using the S.O.A.P. Method to help us dig deeper into the scriptures we will be reading.
The Method:
1. S- Write out the scripture passage for the day.
2. O- Write down 1 or 2 observations from the passage.
3. A- Write down 1-2 applications from the passage.
4. P- Pray over what you learned from today’s passage.
By the end of the 12 weeks, you will have written out the entire book of James in your journal. You will have meditated on every single verse in James as you have written it out and pondered each verse bit by bit.
When you come to a passage that you do not understand, I recommend Crosswalk’s Bible Study Tools found here:http://www.biblestudytools.com/ On this page in the lower right hand corner, you can find links to Bible dictionaries, commentaries, concordances, and other Bible translations, etc. I have been using this website for 7 years! I LOVE it!
I recommend Matthew Henry’s Commentary’s found here: http://www.biblestudytools.com/commentaries/matthew-henry-complete/james/
Our Web Schedule:
On Monday’s, Angela will launch us off. She will remind you of this week’s reading assignments and share what is on her heart regarding this week’s passage.
On Wednesday’s, we invite you to link up or comment in the comment section and share what you are learning during your quiet times in James- this is your day to interact!
On Friday’s, I will close the week with a recap of what I learned- through the lens of being a wife, mother and homemaker- during this week’s assignments.
Our 12 week schedule looks like this:
We have also created a few documents for you to download which will help you prepare for our upcoming James Book Club! All the documents are saved as PDF files.

We are looking so forward to starting this book club with you!
Keep Walking with the King!
