RESPOND to the verse, asking, "how can I apply this truth to my life today?"

With over 30 Bible verses and 84 full-color pages of material, this incredible Bible study journal is the perfect way for you to face the obstacles that keep you from living a happy life and find hope and godly answers on how you can finally discover true joy!  

The 5Rs Bible Study™ Method is one of the best ways to study the Bible effectively because it gives a simple, step-by-step way for anyone to understand and apply any scripture. 

We call this easy Bible study method the “5 Rs” because it consists of five steps that all start with the letter "R": Read, Rewrite, Restate, Relate and Respond.

Let's take a look at this simple Bible study method in action using Psalm 34:4-5.

Step 1: READ the verse(s).

Read Psalm 34:4-5.

Step 2: REWRITE the verse(s).

Copy the entire verse (as its written in that translation). Here's Psalm 34:4-5 as written in the New Living Translation:

"I prayed to the Lord and He answered me. He freed me from all my fears. Those who look to Him for help will be radiant with joy; no shadow of shame will darken their faces."

Step 3: RESTATE the Bible verse.

Write down the verse again, but this time, write it in your own words. 

Here's an example:

"I cried out to God and He heard my cry and responded. He took all my fears away. Everyone who calls to Him for help with their troubles will have spirits that are full of joy; they will not be weighed down by shame or guilt."

Step 4: RELATE the verse(s) to your life.

Ask yourself questions like: "What does this truth remind me of in my own life? How have I seen it to be true of myself, people I know, or of a Bible character?"

Here's an example of what could be written for these verses:

"There have been so many times that I've cried out to God and He's rescued me! I love that when He rescues us it's always done in a way that's best for us and may not necessarily be comfortable for us. He loves us so much that He's willing to walk us through any hard situation, and He gives us the strength to endure it."

Step 5: RESPOND to the verse(s).

Lastly, ask yourself: "Now that I know this truth, how will I live differently today?"

Here's a sample response:

"Knowing that God is with me brings great clarity and comfort. Sometimes in the midst of a trial it's easy to think that God hasn't heard my cries or that He doesn't care. And yet, today, as I think about those things that are challenging me, I feel peace because I can confidently know that He has heard my cry and that He is 'working all things out for my good' (Romans 8:28). I can continue to persevere and to be strong!"

Easy peasy, right? The 5Rs Bible Study™ Method makes it simple to understand and apply Bible verses to your life so that you can grow closer to God in only a few minutes a day.

Each 5Rs Bible Study™ Journal is divided into six-weeks-worth of lessons, each on a specific aspect of that journal's topic. 

Each week begins with a devotional message that introduces that week's topic. 

Then Day 1 through Day 5 uses the 5Rs Bible Study™ Method to examine one verse a day related to that topic. Day by day, you'll analyze and apply powerful scriptures to your life, allowing God to open your heart to awesome new biblical truths. 

At the end of each week there's a "Reflect" section which contains several pages of additional questions and more Bible verses to study in order to learn even more about this topic.

Some complete this section as Day 6 of the study on their own; while others use the questions in this section as prompts for small group discussion.

Then at the end of every "Reflect" section there's space to write down the greatest lessons learned. 

The 5Rs are pretty self-explanatory (and each journal includes detailed instructions on how to complete each step of the 5Rs). But if for any reason you get stuck, you can email us at hello@5RsBiblestudy.com and we're happy to help.

This is a DIGITAL PDF product. This journal is a full-color editable PDF, meaning that you can type your answers directly into the journal. Or, you may choose to print out the journal and hand-write your answers.

Although the journal is full color, you can choose to print it in black and white should you prefer to save on printing.  

We've chosen a digital format for two reasons:

First, a digital format allows families and ministries to purchase a license so that they can print as many copies as they need, thereby saving them money.

Second, a digital format allows those who live outside the US (approximately 35% of the 5Rs users) to receive the 5Rs resources, regardless of where they live. 

No, this is an independent study meant for you to complete on your own, as a family or (with the Church/Ministry License here) as a small group, women's ministry or church. 

Absolutely! We’ve created the 5Rs Bible Study™ Journals to be flexible enough to work for anyone who would like to grow closer to God in a few minutes a day, whether they are a child or an adult.

Of course it depends on each child’s maturity and reading/comprehension abilities, but the 5Rs Bible Study™ Journals are a great Bible time tool for kids ages 8 and up.

Many parents have their kids complete their 5Rs Bible Study™Journal as part of a daily Bible time, and then meet as a family once a week and review that week’s concepts using the discussion questions at the end of each week's lesson. 

We have many school teachers (both traditional and homeschool teachers) and children's ministry leaders who use the 5Rs Bible Study™ resources to help their students learn how to read and study the Bible.

In addition, adults can use these resources for individual Bible time or as part of a group or family study. 

Many use the 5Rs Bible Study™ Journals as part of a women's Bible study or for a small group study. The possibilities are endless!

IMPORTANT: The regular license is designed for individual and family use only. If you would like to use the 5Rs in a church, school, small group or other ministry setting, please purchase the Church/Ministry License HERE. Thank you for your integrity in purchasing the license that works best for your needs and for not sharing this resource illegally.

Because this is a digital product and you are given immediate access to the digital download at purchase, there are no refunds.  

You will receive a link to a digital file upon purchase. You will have access to these materials as long as you have the link.  

The 5Rs Bible Study™ Method itself is a trademarked and protected Bible study method that cannot be used in any other Bible study, teaching, online publication, video, or social media platform without express written permission. 

However, we’ve created the 5Rs Bible Study™ Journals so that churches, schools and other ministries have practical tools for sharing the power of the 5Rs Bible Study™ Method with others!

If you’d like to use the 5Rs resources in a ministry setting, CLICK HERE to access a special church/ministry license for all 5Rs resources which allows you to print as many copies as you need for your ministry use.  

Super simple (promise). You will receive an email with a special link to download the digital file.

Since the 5Rs Bible Study™ Journals are digitally editable documents, you can type your answers directly into the document; or if you'd prefer, you can print out the pages and hand-write your answers.  

This is a self-paced study, so there’s no way to “fall behind.” We do recommend that you complete 1 worksheet a day (you can carve out 10 minutes, right?) to finish the study in 6 weeks. But if it takes you longer than that, no worries.
