Start Here: Follow One Passage Well

This is a short, repeatable study path—not a race to collect verses. In about 15 minutes, you will read a passage in context, inspect a few linked references, and record one observation worth carrying with you.

Read the chapter

Begin with John 3. Read the surrounding passage before focusing on verse 16.

A simple study note

Before you leave, write down three short answers in your own words:

  1. What is happening in the immediate passage?
  2. What repeated word, idea, or contrast did you notice?
  3. Which linked passage helped you see the first passage more clearly—and why?

If a connection is unclear, that is useful information. Keep reading the contexts rather than forcing a conclusion.
