Today’s study tip doesn’t have much to do with the studying itself, but everything to do with its effectiveness. Before you open your Bible or notebook, take a few moments to walk through these questions in preparation.

Born in Ashland, KY during the Summer of Love, raised and educated in the Commonwealth. I met Jesus Christ on Mother's Day 1975, and I've followed Him on an incredible journey. I've wandered off the path more than once, but He waited patiently for me each time, and welcomed me back. In 1992, He gave me the MOST incredible gift- my husband, Jon, then He followed that in 1997, 2000 and 2006 with three beautiful kids (and they are, not just because they are mine). These days He's giving me the opportunity to write, homeschool and raise those little ones.
