New series begins October 24

Exploring the Bible’s images

Each week, we’ll pick a biblical image or metaphor and dive into get insight into the biblical author’s intent. Topics will include fire, gardens, water, wilderness, and more. More details to come.

Two Ways To Dive In

Each Thursday morning, you’ll receive tools, techniques, and tips to help you understand your Bible better. Dive into the history, culture, literary structure, and language of God’s Word. Our goal is to stand as close as we can to those who first heard Him speak so we can hear His voice for ourselves through the Scriptures.

Thursday’s emails include all of the tools, techniques, and tips PLUS additional content including teaching videos, resources, and small group discussion guides. Expedition Members also receive access to the Expedition Library, a comprehensive archive of all published materials. Members can review any previous edition with all of the associated materials, and revisit any expedition on demand.

Love God, Love One Another

If we interpret any passage in the Bible in some way that isn’t THIS, then we’ve missed something. (From Edition 002: What the Bible IS NOT)

Logos and Rhema

The New Testament has three words in the original Greek for “word” — graphe, logos, and rhema. Each one refers to a different aspect of how God communicates to us through the Scriptures. Which one are we diving for? (From Edition 005: Information Alone Isn’t Enough)

FAQs

  • For $5 a month, you’ll receive weekly emails with Bible Diving instructions to help you get under the surface of Scripture. These will include video teaching, resources and practice guides to download, and small group resources.

    You’ll also have access to the Expedition Library where all of the published materials starting with Edition 001 will be yours to explore whenever you want.

  • Anyone can begin at any time during a series. Just dive on in with us and join the fun!

    If you choose to become an Expedition Member, you can access editions that you missed in the Expedition Library.

    Most editions will be able to stand alone rather than depending on information from previous editions.

    The big exception is the Bible Diving Basics Series which covers the fundamental tools, concepts, and techniques to get you under the surface of Scripture. Once this series wraps up in March 2024, I’ll make a free version of the entire series available so no one gets left out.

  • That depends on how much diving you want to do on your own time. Each email will take about 10-15 minutes to read and view all of the material. You could spend anywhere from 30-minutes to a couple of hours with each Diving Practice Guide that you download if you want. It’s really up to you how much time you want to invest in your Bible Diving practice.

  • Expedition Members will have access to a Small Group Discussion Guide for the material included with each edition. The guides are also available in the Expedition Library so you can go through any series or combination of editions that you want whenever you want.

    Each guide has a suggested 90-minute agenda, and you can make adjustments according to your group’s individual needs.

    The small group discussions cover all of the material in each edition including the videos. Each agenda also includes at least 20-minutes of Bible Diving practice so you can hone your skills together.

  • Exepdition Members receive a link to at least one downloadable resource in each edition. The content will depend on what’s most relevant to the topic.

    Some downloads will contain reference material on important aspects of your Bible like where it falls on the translation spectrum, or key milestones in the Bible’s larger story called the metanarrative. These resources will apply either to the Bible in general or specific kinds of passages, and you can keep them for your reference for lots of diving expeditions.

    Other downloads will include guides for Bible Diving into specific passages on your own. Like a tour guide would point out the most interesting aspects of an attraction, these guides will point out interesting points in a passage while allowing room for you to explore on your own, too.

  • Each series will include somewhere between six and twelve editions. If a particular topic requires more than that, they’ll probably get broken into multiple parts to keep things manageable.

    The current schedule includes plenty of materials for the 2024 calendar year at least.

    And with the entire Bible before us to explore, the only limit on the number of series is the level of support and interest for them to continue.

“This was the most intentional walk through of a Bible overview I have done. This has equipped me to be successful in knowing Him more and also excites me now to dive into God’s Word and see it as the intricate masterpiece that He intends it to be.”

“Bible diving is life changing! I have done many Bible studies over the years, but I had never gone this deep on my own. ”
