We have already looked at the Devotional Bible Study Method and last week we studied the Chapter Summary Method.
The Character Quality Method of Bible Study involves finding out what the Bible says about a particular characteristic of a person, with a heavy emphasis on personal application.
It is a combination of three other Bible Study methods Word Study, Biographical Method and Cross-Reference Method.
Step One- Name the Quality
Step Two- Name the Opposite Quality
Step Three- Do a simple Word Study
Step Four- Find Some Cross- References
Step Five- Do a brief Biographical Study
Step Six- Find a memory verse
Step Seven - Select a Situation or Relationship to work on
Step Eight - Plan a Specific Project
Step Nine- Write Out a Personal Illustration
