A one-passage method for reading Scripture slowly, built for the woman whose Bible reading has become skimming. Twelve minutes, one passage, a pencil. You stay with the same verses long enough to hear them, and the worksheet gives you somewhere to put what you notice.

What's inside

• A three-movement method: Read the passage aloud at half speed, Notice the word that snagged, Return to why it stopped you
• Space to record the passage and date so you can work through the same verses across a week
• A prompt for what the passage seems to know about God that you have been forgetting
• One sentence to carry into the day
• An honest place to record an empty morning, because "I read this and felt nothing today" is a complete entry

Who it's for

Christian women who want a slower, quieter Bible reading practice without a study guide, a reading plan, or a commentary. Works alongside any translation.

How to use it

Print one copy for each day you use it, or keep a single copy beside your Bible and work through it in your journal. Return to the same passage tomorrow. The words will not change; notice what has.

Common questions

How long does one session take? About twelve minutes, though it stretches comfortably to thirty.

Do I need to know a Bible study method already? No. The three steps are printed on the page.

How is this different from SOAP or Lectio Divina? This is the lightest of the three, built for returning readers. For a hand-copying method try SOAP, Slowly; for a prayer-centered method try Lectio Divina.

Can I reprint it? Yes, for your own personal use as often as you like.
