Ever wondered what those little letters and numbers in the center column of your Bible mean?
(Or maybe it's at the bottom of the page in your Bible.)
They look like this:
They're called cross references.
And honestly, it's easy to just ignore them. I know I did for the first few years of reading the Bible.
But once you know what they are--and how to use them--you'll open up a whole new world of Bible study, that feels like a fun treasure hunt. 🙂
And just so you know--this isn't a skill reserved for the super-spiritual elite (as if there was such a thing--ha!). This is a really simple but powerful skill YOU can add to your Bible study toolbox.
In today's Bible study tutorial, I'll show you how you can learn to use cross-references to uncover nuances of the passage you're reading, and you can do it in just a few seconds!
Pull out your Bible, open up to Matthew 6:25 and hit "play" on this video above.
Looking forward to growing more confident and capable in our Bible study skills together!
