Bible Studies
Visual Faith® Ministry has several studies to choose from, designed to accommodate personal or group study. Our most extensive study is The Word Speaks: The God of Change, which involves several videos and a textbook, is available as a digital download or spiral-bound printed book from our VFM Bookstore via LULU.
One of the most impactful albeit short books of the Bible is Paul's letter to the Colossians. Inside of these 95 verses, we find hope, peace, encouragement, and the truth of our salvation in Jesus Christ. There are 6 lessons in this series, each designed to spark your imagination and deepen your faith. While each lesson can stand alone, they will lend easily to 6 sessions that build one upon the others. Each lesson has Christ at the center, as He is our light and life.
The God Who Never Changes – Changes US! Found throughout the Bible are stories of lives changed by God. This study embraces the transformed life of the patriarch, Moses. Beginning with a study about God’s call to transformation found in Romans 12:1-2, this companion Bible Study for Visual Faith® Ministry’s Movable Adventure provides 20 lessons that will draw you deeply into the Word of God. While Moses serves as our role model, the goal is that we experience transformation of our own lives. This Bible study is available as a printed book from our new publisher if you want to purchase it. Click here.
“Why Visual Faith?" is a set of four brief Bible studies written by Carolyn Bira are the doorway into the Spiritual Foundation of Visual Faith.
Scripture Scribing is the practice of copying out a Bible verse or a passage in your own handwriting. This daily practice slows us down, positions us to interact with the details of The Word, and often reveals nuances in even the most familiar of verses. The process of scribing allows the scribe to ponder new insights, to pray, and to examine questions prompted during the process, and to receive God's gift of peace that passes all understanding. People who faithfully scribe Scripture would attest that this practice is foundational to their daily devotional time.
We offer 12 Names of God Scripture Scribing Packets that each contain 12 passages. These are paired with a short devotional or commentary to spark some curiosity about the passage as well surface as your questions. We also have our Proverbs Project - 52 Weeks of Wisdom (one Proverb for each week of the year). We also have some scribing index cards you can download to create a Scripture Scribing project. We also have a Names of Jesus Full Year Packet offered in the Shoppe as a Free Download, in our VFM Bookstore as a printed spiral bound book, and also as part of our Common Book.
The Scripture Scribing practice was launched September 27, 2022. Watch the video of the zoom launch event, try your hand at scripture scribing, and hear three tips for beginning scripture scribing!
