A new, free resource just became available for everyone interested in practical, in-depth Bible study.
In this time of confinement due to the Coronavirus, the Internet has become more than ever a daily companion. It is a source of a wide range of offers to satisfy requests, curiosities, information, data, and a lot more. Some use it to fill out their day; others take advantage of some available time to search for a particular topic; yet for many, the Internet is an “interface” for work.
Among the most popular topics, the religious aspect is certainly one of the most clicked ever. For this reason, it is important what is available matches the demand adequately.
This article will present one of the most effective methods to study the Bible. On the YouTube channel ‘Masterpiece Bible’, the theologian Chris Vogel shares short videos featuring helpful tips and ideas on how to study the Bible as well as personal discoveries from his own study of the text.
Vogel, who holds a PhD in Old Testament from Andrews University and currently works at Hope Media Europe, the media centre of the Inter-European Division of the Seventh-day Adventists, has long been fascinated by the incredible beauty and depth of the biblical texts and is excited about this opportunity to share with others what he has discovered in and about the Bible.
When asked what he would like to accomplish through the videos, he explains, ‘My goal is to get people excited about the Bible by showing them what a brilliant masterpiece this book really is and to teach them how they can study the Bible in a deeper way and make fascinating discoveries along the way. It’s truly amazing what you can find in these ancient texts if you know how to go about it and what to look for. And the good news is: anyone can do it!’
In addition to the YouTube channel, a website featuring a detailed reading guide as well as other helpful resources for Bible study is available at www.masterpiece.bible. The videos are also available in German on the YouTube Channel ‘Masterpiece Bibel‘.
