I love going to school. I love studying. I love my nose pressed into a good book or even a bad one. I live for new ideas and challenging concepts. I like to master new fields. I enjoy the process of discovery.
Foster aptly points out his four steps of studying-repetition, concentration, comprehension, and reflection. I profoundly agree that we too often never reach the stage of reflection. This life-change component of understanding is so frequently overlooked and so desperately needed.
I am going to attempt to practice the discipline of study this week with a slant toward reflection. I will study books and events. I will start tomorrow with a Bible passage that I will be preaching from this weekend. I hope you will join me as I venture into the Book of Romans. I will use Romans 1:1-3:20 as the broad text for this sermon. Hope you join me in those pages.
