WEEK 23: Study 2 Corintians 4

This week (Febuary 4 thru Febuary 10), please study 2 Corinthians, Chapter 4.

If you want to read the chapter online, click here. (Free website Biblegateway.Com)

DOWNLOAD: Click here to download the MP3 for 2 Corinthians 4. (Password is "quizpad" without the quotes. Available for only 90 days.)

If you'd like to read a commentary on the chapter, click here. (Free website, ChristNotes.Com)

Study Tip: Do read through the text of scripture and find at the end that you know barely more than you did at the beginning? Do you envy those who can read it once, and be able to quiz effectively? Different people learn in different ways. Some people can do it by simply reading, others by listening. But you may be a learner who needs to really engage the text. Consider taking notes as you read - note down really interesting sections, questions that the text raises, notable phrases, etc. At the end, you will have applied not only your eyes but all the parts of your brain, and the learning may very well be far more effective. Oh, and don't forget to call, e-mail, or speak to the coaches, your parents, or the pastors to get the answers to those questions you had.
