What Little League and the Olympics Can Teach About Bible Study

August 19, 2016 By Peter Krol

This week, I’m taking off from writing to take my family on our annual trip to the Little League World Series in Williamsport, PA. In honor of the season, I have two brief posts to recommend:

  • What the Little League World Series Taught Me About Bible Study – where Little League’s international flavor proves an important point about the universality of the OIA method (observe, interpret, apply).
  • What the Olympics Taught Me About Bible Study – a piece I wrote 4 years ago about the incredible drama of the Summer Olympics – and how to recapture that drama in our personal Bible study.

Check it out!
