What does each lesson's format look like?
Most of the BOW studies are divided into three sections of study to be done during one week or all at once. A few studies are divided into five days of study. See each study’s description on the website for information about its number of lessons and format.
Some studies are called Journaling studies - what are they?
Because we ask open questions, using a journal to note your answers and insights allows you as much or little room as you want to write. Some of us get stressed as we try to figure out if we’ve written enough, so we leave it up to you. What are open questions? They are questions that aren’t yes/no or fill in the blank, but questions that force us to think.
How difficult are the BOW Bible studies?
They range from simple to more advanced. All have optional work that the small group won’t discuss, allowing deeper study for those who are interested in a more difficult study.
