Remember WhenNäide

Reading the Bible can feel intimidating sometimes. But one simple way of studying Scripture is called S.O.A.P. It stands for "Scripture," "Observation," "Application," and "Prayer." We'll show you how—it's easy!

S: Scripture

If you haven't already, read today's passage of Scripture. Then summarize it in your own words.

O: Observation

Read Galatians 4:4–7 again.

• What stands out to you?
• What does it teach us about why God gave us Jesus?
• How does the passage describe being a child of God?

A: Application

• What does it mean to you to be a child of God?
• How might embracing your status as a child of God change your choices?
• Is there anyone you could share God's message of redemption with? If so, who?

P: Prayer

Spend some time praying about your access to God as a good parent. Think about how this perspective can change your life. Then say thank you for God's gift of Jesus making a way for you.
