Deeper Into Scripture is  a methodology of scripture reading that instructs, encourages and equips people to read God's Word daily and deeply.  We have created a unique four-fold method of bible reading that directs the individual to read a short passage of scripture four times.  Each reading is done with a different question, instruction or objective to be considered.  This repetitive reading takes us deeply into the Word of God, increases our understanding and draws us closer to Him.
