Description: (Friday Nights 8:30-9:30 PM Eastern Time). "For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little" is taken from Isaiah 28:10 (KJV). The Bible Cross-Reference Chain Builders Club is a group that seeks to know God intimately through Bible reading, study, and meditation by using a topic suggested by any group member, not just the group leaders. Then, that member reads or suggests a Bible cross-reference directly or indirectly related to the topic. Thus, each member is a Bible Cross-Reference Chain Builder. Any group member can also suggest other cross-references or cross-references of cross-references that are related to the text under discussion. This makes for a Spirit-dependent, free-flowing, Bible reading/study experience in which every meeting is never the same; just ask our members. Language Interpretation is available. The same topic can be continued from week to week as the group decides.
Materials needed: Bible, we strongly recommend downloading e-Sword (https://e-sword.net/) in this group. It's a free download except for Android devices and Mac computers.
