    Hello!
    I am using an old version of Early Modern and Epistles for history this year. It references GOAL Bible study journals which I am assuming will tell you what to do with the suggested Bible passage. I am unsure what to do with the passage besides read it… I know that sounds silly probably, but we are newer to reading the Bible and I would love something that guides me a bit because I have a hard time figuring out what it is saying myself! My kids are 12 and 15. I have looked at discovering doctrine (also recommended in the Early Modern) and it doesn’t look like it helps my situation much.
    Any suggestions? Do we just read the passage, discuss if we can, and move on? I was thinking getting the Early Modern guide would help me link everything together.

    The GOAL Bible study book was a notebook for you to record what you found out in a Bible reading about promises, commands, sins to avoid, and principles to live by. The letters in GOAL stand for:

    Grasp this promise

    Obey this command

    Avoid this sin

    Live this principle

    You can use any notebook to record what you find for each category. Simply write “Grasp this promise,” “Obey this command,” “Avoid this sin,” and “Live this principle” on each page, leaving room after each category to record what you find. Don’t worry if you don’t find something for each one in every reading. Some Bible passages will not have all of them.
