Personal Bible Study Course

Ages 10–14

Short · Interactive · Self-paced

Enjoy the Bible for Yourself

Have you ever opened the Bible and wondered, “Where do I begin? What does this mean? What can I do with it?” This course gives you a simple way to begin, one small step at a time.

Made for pre-teens and teens, this course feels more like learning with a helpful friend than reading a textbook. Young co-learners ask honest questions, make mistakes and look again. They remind you that it is normal not to understand everything at first.

Short interactive activities invite you to choose, sort, reveal and try. No computer knowledge is needed. You can learn on your own or enjoy the course with your family or a small group.

On your own With your family In a small group

People from any religion or background are welcome. The course is especially helpful if you are new to the Christian faith or reading the Bible for yourself for the first time.

What you will learn

Simple skills you can use again

Explore

Read with growing confidence

Find your way around the Bible, follow its big story, understand different kinds of writing and mark what you notice.

Born Again Course

For teenagers and young adults

Short · Interactive · Self-paced

Born Again

Gateway to Enjoying the Bible

What did Jesus mean when he said, “You must be born again”? Bring your questions, open the Bible and explore his answer one step at a time.

Why begin with being born again?

Because the Bible is about more than information

The Bible says that sin has broken our relationship with God. Through Jesus, God offers forgiveness, reconciliation and new life. Jesus described this new life as being born again.

This restored relationship gives us a new reason to open the Bible. We are not simply learning facts about God. We begin to read his Word as part of learning to know him, trust him and walk with him. That is why being born again is the gateway to enjoying the Bible.

You are welcome here

You do not need previous Bible knowledge or a Christian background. You may already follow Jesus, come from another religious background, be unsure what you believe, or simply be curious.

People from any religion or background are welcome. You are free to ask questions, read the Bible for yourself and take time to think about what you discover.

What you will explore

Four questions lead the way

1. Why do we need new life?
See what the Bible says about sin and our broken relationship with God.

2. What has Jesus done?
Discover how his death and resurrection bring forgiveness, reconciliation and new life.

3. What does it mean to be born again?
Explore what it means to turn to God and trust Jesus as Saviour and Lord.

4. How does new life grow?
Begin exploring assurance, prayer, God's Word and learning to walk with Jesus.

Around the family table

Meet Dad, Mum, Anna, Joel and Sam

Dad Dad Mum Mum Anna Anna Joel Joel Sam Sam

The course follows conversations in a Christian family. They ask honest questions, listen to one another and return to the Bible together. Their family background does not have to be yours.

Think of yourself as a guest at their table. Listen to the conversation, open the Bible with them and think carefully about what you discover.

How you will learn

Read · Listen · Think · Try · Respond

Short Bible passages, family conversations and interactive activities help you slow down and think. The activities are there to help you understand, not simply to test you. Take your time and return to the Bible whenever you need.

Curious? You are welcome to begin.

Ages 13–16 · Before You Start

Before You Begin, A Few Things We Want You to Know

If we were sitting together with your Bible on the table, I would not begin by telling you how wonderful the course is. I would first tell you what it will ask from you, where it may feel difficult, and why I still think the effort can be worth it.

I want to be honest with you before you begin. At times, this course may feel slow, repetitive, demanding, difficult, or even boring. You may reread the same passage, write something down, check it, and change your first answer.

ABOUT 20 HOURS
spread over many sittings
30–45 MINUTES
often enough for one sitting
OPEN-BOOK REVIEW
60% needed to pass

You do not need to be an expert. You do need to be willing to slow down, try, and keep coming back.

We are telling you this now because we do not want anything important to surprise you later. The course asks something real from you because it is trying to give you something lasting: the ability to open the Bible and study it carefully for yourself.

Choose the right starting point

Is This the Right EnjoyBible Course for You?

Your age matters, but so does the way you are ready to learn. There is no prize for choosing the hardest course. The better starting point is the one that gives you enough help to keep going while still asking you to think for yourself.

Foundational Course

Choose this if you would do better with shorter activities, simpler instructions, and more help before longer notebook-based study. Starting more gently is completely fine.

Ages 13–16 · This Course

Choose this course if you are ready to read carefully, write short notebook responses, practise, check your work, and gradually do more without someone telling you every next step.

Older Learner?

If you want a more mature learning environment with longer and more independent study, choose the EnjoyBible course designed for older learners.

You are learning a skill

Why You Will Sometimes Read the Same Passage Again

You can understand the definition of Observation in a few minutes. Becoming someone who actually notices what is in a passage takes practice. The same is true of Interpretation. So yes, there will be times when I ask you to read the passage again, mark something, write a short answer, check it, and improve it.

A screen-only lesson may feel like

READ → UNDERSTAND → MOVE ON

EnjoyBible will often ask you to

BIBLE → TRY → WRITE → CHECK → REVISE → PRACTISE

It is possible to understand a teacher’s answer and still feel lost when you open a new passage alone. I do not want that for you. We are working toward the day when you can say, “I know how to begin.”

One limitation I do not want to hide

This Is Text-Based Online Training

A webpage cannot look at your face and notice that you are confused. It cannot see that your attention has disappeared, that you are tired after school, or that you are clicking “Next” without really doing the study. A live teacher might notice those things. This course cannot always do that.

It is also mostly a reading-and-doing course, not a video course. If you strongly prefer learning only through videos or constant live interaction, some pages may feel harder than you expect. I would rather tell you that before you enrol.

The course can guide you.
It can explain the next step, show examples, give clues, and tell you where to restart.
It cannot do your attention for you.
You will still need to open the Bible, think, write something down, and make your own first attempt.
You are allowed to stop.
If your mind is tired, a short honest break is better than ten minutes of empty scrolling.

I cannot promise that every page will feel easy. I can promise that the instructions are meant to help you know what to do, why you are doing it, and how to keep going when the work becomes difficult.

We know attention can be hard

Here Is How the Course Tries to Help You Keep Going

Your week may already be full. School, exams, family responsibilities, friendships, gaming, messages, videos, social media, and ordinary tiredness can all pull at your attention. So when the Bible study itself is difficult, you should not also have to struggle to work out what the course wants you to do.

Clear Teacher Instructions
Know what to do, why you are doing it, and where to write.
Good Places to Stop
Longer pages are divided into manageable sittings so you can stop without losing your place.
Meaningful Selah Pauses
The exact meaning of Selah is uncertain. EnjoyBible borrows the idea of a meaningful pause. Sometimes the best next step is to rest, let something settle, reflect, or return later.
Co-Learners
Ayaan, Tara, Joel, and Meera learn alongside you through real questions, mistakes, and discoveries.
Help After Your First Work
Clues and worked checks are available when needed, but they come after your own genuine attempt.
A Growing PBS Dictionary
You will build your own small reference for study words such as Observation, Interpretation, Application, and Response, so you do not have to search through the whole course every time you forget a term.

I do not want the course to feel difficult because the instructions are confusing. But I also do not want to remove the practice that actually helps you learn.

One habit matters throughout the course

Let the Bible Have the First Word

Teachers, study Bibles, commentaries, videos, and AI can all help. I am not going to tell you that using help is wrong. I am going to ask you to give the Bible and your own thinking the first turn. Then use help when you actually need it, and come back to the passage to check what you were told.

BIBLE FIRST → MY OWN FIRST WORK → HELP IF NEEDED → BACK TO THE BIBLE

Otherwise, it is easy to receive a good answer while your own Bible-study skill stays weak.

 
What studying will actually look like

You Will Move Between the Course, the Bible, and Your Notebook

Keep your Bible and PBS Notebook beside you. The course gives the next instruction, but the real study happens as you return to Scripture, notice what is there, and write your own work. You will not be asked to write essays. Often a few words, a marked phrase, a question, or one clear sentence is enough. But you cannot learn this skill by only tapping “Next.”

COURSE → BIBLE → PBS NOTEBOOK → RETURN

At first I will give you more help. Later I will deliberately say less. That is not because the course suddenly becomes unfriendly. It is because a good teacher eventually has to let you try. The goal is for these habits to become yours.

Why the practice matters

What I Hope You Notice Changing

At first: “Where do I begin?”
With practice: “I know how to slow down and see what is actually in the passage.”
As confidence grows: “I can work out what the writer is communicating and check whether my answer fits.”
Over time: “I can carry the truth carefully into life, respond to it, and begin another passage without waiting for someone to tell me every next step.”

Our dream is not to make you dependent on EnjoyBible. Our dream is to help you become a student who knows how to open the Bible, discover its message carefully, and keep growing with Scripture.

One learner. One open Bible. One passage read carefully. One truth understood faithfully. One honest response to God. Then another passage. And another.

The Bible is meant to travel with you

Bible Study Is Bigger Than Finishing “Bible Time”

What you discover in Scripture should not stay trapped inside “Bible time.” Over time, God’s truth can begin shaping how you handle friendships, family, schoolwork, success, failure, money, technology, choices, temptation, purpose, and the future.

This does not mean forcing a Bible verse into every school subject. It means letting God’s truth shape the questions you ask, the values you carry, and the kind of person you are becoming.

 
Know the commitment before you begin

Give Yourself Time

This is a substantial self-paced course. Plan for about 20 hours in total, spread across many sittings. Most of the time, 30–45 minutes is enough for one study period. You may take longer, especially if notebook-based study is new to you. That is completely fine. Careful Bible study is not a race.

When you reach a genuine Selah pause or another good stopping point, you may stop and return later without starting the page again.

I want you to know this now

At the End, There Is an Open-Book Review You Need to Pass

You will not finish simply by reaching the last page. At the end, you must complete and pass the Open-Book Course Review.

This is not a speed-memory test. You may use your Bible, PBS Notebook, PBS Dictionary, your own Micah and Jonah study work, and course pages. Some questions will ask you to open Scripture before answering.

No certificate is awarded. I want you to know that before you start. The review is there to help you see whether the method is becoming usable, and where you may still need practice. The real outcome is not a badge. It is being able to open the Bible and study it for yourself.

Read this part carefully before you decide

Before You Decide

You do not need advanced Bible knowledge. Your attention will wander sometimes. Your first answer will sometimes be weak. You may even need to redo a piece of work. None of that disqualifies you. The more important question is: Am I willing to practise?

You are probably ready to begin if...
✓ You genuinely want to learn to study Scripture for yourself.
✓ You are willing to keep a Bible, PBS Notebook, and growing PBS Dictionary with you.
✓ You will make your own first attempt before looking for answers.
✓ You are willing to reread, write short answers, check, and revise when needed.
✓ You are willing to let EnjoyBible give you less help as your confidence grows.
It may be better to wait if...
• You mainly want quick explanations without doing the study yourself.
• You do not want to write or review any of your own work.
• You want AI, videos, teachers, or model answers to do the first thinking for you.
• Your main concern is finishing quickly or receiving a certificate.

There is nothing embarrassing about waiting. If this is not the right time, start more gently or come back later. I would rather you begin when you are ready than enrol enthusiastically and quietly disappear halfway through.

YOUR DECISION

Are You Ready to Begin?

You do not need to impress anyone. You simply need to be willing to open the Bible, think carefully, make your own attempt, and keep learning when the first answer is not perfect.

“I understand that this course may sometimes feel slow or demanding and will take about 20 hours in total. I am willing to read carefully, write, think, check, and revise. I will make my own Bible-based attempt before turning to outside help. I understand that I must complete and pass the final Open-Book Course Review. There is no certificate. I still genuinely want to learn how to study the Bible carefully for myself.”

Read that slowly. If you cannot honestly say it yet, that is okay. Choose a gentler starting point or come back later. If you can say it honestly, then you are ready to begin.

Bring an open Bible, a working notebook, and a willingness to learn.

Before You Decide to Join

Here Is What This Course Is Really Like

Please read this page carefully before you decide. If we were sitting together before you began, there are a few things I would want to tell you openly.

At times, this course may feel slow, repetitive, demanding, difficult, or even boring.

I would rather tell you that now than let you discover it halfway through and wonder whether something has gone wrong.

If you usually skim long descriptions, please do not skip the final “Before You Decide” section. It will help you decide honestly whether this is the right time to begin.

Why it may feel slower than expected

Why This Course May Feel Slower

You are learning a skill, not only listening to an explanation. Knowing what Observation means is not the same as becoming observant. Knowing the steps of Interpretation is not the same as learning to interpret a passage carefully. That is why you will reread, mark, write, check, revise, and practise again.

Video courses such as Udemy, LinkedIn Learning, YouTube, and others can be excellent for explanation and demonstration. This course will often ask you to pause the lesson, open your Bible, and do the study yourself.

A video-first lesson may feel like

WATCH → UNDERSTAND → MOVE ON

EnjoyBible will often ask you to

BIBLE → TRY → WRITE → CHECK → REVISE → PRACTISE

There is a difference between “I understood what the teacher did” and “I can now begin doing this myself.” We are working toward the second.

 

Online Training Has Real Limits

A webpage cannot always see when you are confused, tired, rushing, distracted, or quietly giving up. If we were sitting together, a teacher might notice and help you slow down. An online course cannot always do that.

We can make instructions clearer and give you better places to pause. We cannot supply your attention for you.

We know your week may already be full

We Have Tried to Build This Around Real Learners

If you are studying

Classes, assignments, exams, projects, placements, friendships, fellowship, travel, and digital distraction may already fill your week.

If you are working

Deadlines, shifts, meetings, travel, family responsibilities, ministry, and simple tiredness may make regular study difficult.

This course has grown out of decades of teaching Personal Bible Study skills and noticing where learners become confused, rush ahead, lose confidence, depend too quickly on ready-made answers, or stop practising. Teaching this way takes longer because we are not only explaining the method. We are giving you room to practise it.

Longer pages are divided into Learning Blocks, with Selah Breaks at genuine stopping points. The name is inspired by the word Selah that appears in the Psalms. You can pause there and return without losing the thread.

Clear Instructions
Know what to do and where to write.
Learning Blocks
Work through one meaningful unit at a time.
Selah Breaks
Pause at a genuine stopping point and return later.
Help When Stuck
Ask for focused help after your own first work.

We have tried to remove unnecessary difficulty. We have not removed the necessary work of learning.

If you give this learning your time and attention, we want you to know that we value that effort.

One habit matters throughout the course

Let the Bible Have the First Word

Teachers, study Bibles, commentaries, videos, and AI can all be useful. We will not ask you to avoid good help. We will ask you to look first and make your own first attempt.

BIBLE FIRST → MY OWN FIRST WORK → HELP IF NEEDED → BACK TO THE BIBLE

Otherwise, it is easy to receive a good answer while the skill itself stays weak.

Why the practice matters

What We Hope Begins to Change

At first: “Where do I begin?”
With practice: “I know what to look for and what kind of question to ask next.”
As confidence grows: “I can test whether what I think fits the passage and use help more wisely.”
Over time: “I can open a passage and begin without waiting for someone to tell me every next step.”

The dream was never to make you dependent on EnjoyBible. The dream is to help you become a person who knows how to open the Bible and discover God’s truth for yourself.

One learner. One open Bible. One passage read carefully. One truth understood faithfully. One honest response to God. Then another passage. And another.

 
Know the commitment before you begin

Give Yourself Time

This is a substantial self-paced course. You will work through it over many sittings, opening the Bible, using your PBS Notebook, practising, pausing, returning, and eventually completing more independent studies.

Expect to spend about 22–28 hours in total. Longer pages use Learning Blocks and Selah Breaks so you can stop at a sensible place and return.

The course concludes with a required Open-Book Review. You may use your Bible, PBS Notebook, and course pages. The aim is to check whether you understand and can use the method, not whether you can memorise course wording.

Read this part carefully before you decide

Before You Decide

You do not need advanced Bible knowledge, perfect discipline, or a completely free schedule. The more important question is: Am I willing to practise?

You are probably ready to begin if...
✓ You genuinely want to learn to study Scripture for yourself.
✓ You are willing to open your Bible and use a PBS Notebook.
✓ You will make your own first attempt before looking for answers.
✓ You are willing to practise, revise, pause, and return when life interrupts.
It may be better to wait if...
• You mainly want quick explanations of Bible passages.
• You do not want to write, practise, or revise.
• You want AI, commentaries, videos, or model answers to do the first work.
• Your main concern is finishing quickly or obtaining the certificate.

There is nothing wrong with waiting. It is better to begin when you are ready to give the learning some genuine attention.

how to study the Bible carefully for yourself.

Is This the Right EnjoyBible Course for You?

Choose by learning readiness, not simply by how much Bible study experience you already have.

Know what you are choosing

Some Parts May Feel Difficult. That Is Part of Learning the Skill.

At times the course may feel slow, repetitive, demanding, difficult, or even boring. You may reread the same passage, rewrite an answer, or discover that your first conclusion was weak. The difficulty is not the goal. The skill is.

You will reread passages several times.

This trains you to notice what quick reading misses.

You will write, check, and sometimes rewrite.

This teaches you to test ideas against Scripture instead of trusting your first impression.

Some practice will feel repetitive.

Repetition helps the method become a habit you can later use without prompts.

You will not always receive the answer immediately.

You learn to think from the passage before opening clues, examples, AI, or other outside help.

The course takes about 15 hours.

The course will finish. The skill can continue serving your Bible study for years.

Lessons open in sequence.

You cannot simply jump to random pages. Each stage prepares the skill needed for the next one.

Why ask this much? Because the aim is not merely to finish another online course. The aim is to help you open a Bible passage and know how to study it carefully for yourself.

What studying will actually look like

You Will Do More Than Read the Screen

Keep your Bible and PBS Notebook beside you. A typical study rhythm is:

READ AGAIN NOTICE MARK WRITE CONNECT CHECK REVISE
Course → Bible → PBS Notebook → Course
Checking or revising may send you back to the passage again.
Know this before you enrol

Your Honest Self-Check

Before You Enrol · Can You Say Yes?

Please do not enrol simply because the course looks interesting. Enrol if you are genuinely willing to do the work required to learn the skill.

✓ I am willing to spend about 15 hours learning and practising this skill.

✓ I can make serious study periods, often around 30–45 minutes, and return after a Learning Break when needed.

✓ I am willing to use a Bible and PBS Notebook, not simply read or scroll through the screen.

✓ I am willing to reread, mark, write, connect, check, and revise, even when practice feels slow or repetitive.

✓ I will make my own Bible-based attempt first before turning to AI, model answers, videos, commentaries, or another person for help.

✓ I understand that the lessons follow a guided sequence and are not meant to be opened randomly.

✓ I am willing to complete the required final Open-Book Course Review and reach the 60% passing grade.

✓ I understand that there is no certificate. I still want to learn the skill.

This course is probably not the right choice for you now if...
  1. You are looking for quick devotional thoughts without much study. 
  2. You prefer not to write or review your own work. 
  3. You want AI, videos, teachers, or model answers to handle most of the thinking. 
  4. You want to skip around to only the lessons that interest you. 
  5. You are mainly interested in getting a certificate. Or you do not want to finish the final review.

Not ready yet? Start with a gentler EnjoyBible course and return later. Choosing a more suitable starting point is better than enrolling enthusiastically and leaving the course unfinished.

If you are ready

The Course Is Demanding, but You Are Not Left Without Support

The support is designed to help you keep going while still protecting the most important part of the course: your own careful work with the Bible.

Self-Paced

Fit study around schoolwork and real responsibilities. You can pause and return without losing the learning journey.

Learning Breaks

Longer pages include safe stopping points so you can complete a meaningful block, pause, and continue later.

Clear Instructions + Mind Maps

New skills begin with specific guidance about what to do, what to write, and how to check. Where useful, mind maps and visual guides help you see how ideas and Bible-study steps connect.

Co-Learners Along the Way

Ayaan, Tara, Joel, and Meera learn alongside you. Their questions, mistakes, and discoveries help make difficult ideas easier to recognise without doing your work for you.

Optional Clues and Checks

When a task is difficult, appropriate clues, checks, and worked examples are available after your own genuine attempt.

Team EnjoyBible Is Available

If an instruction is unclear, Team EnjoyBible can help clarify it through a WhatsApp message or email. We can guide you, but we will not do the Bible study for you.

Why Might the Effort Be Worth It?

Careful personal Bible study can help you understand Scripture more faithfully, recognise unsupported ideas, respond more wisely, deepen your life with God, and gradually develop a biblical way of seeing life.

School will finish. Examinations will finish. This course will finish. The ability to study Scripture carefully for yourself can continue for decades.

YOUR DECISION

Are You Ready to Begin?

You do not need to be an expert. You do not need extensive Bible knowledge. You do need to be willing to practise.
