Plugging Into A Bible Study

I have found that with the busy schedules of being in college, you get into a monotonous routine, for many Christians, this includes just going to church and that's it. To further strengthen your relationship and to stay strong against the temptations, it is important to get plugged into a weekly bible study. This can be within your church, organization, or just with a group of friends.
The positive aspects of being plugged into a bible study with your church is that is organized and is on the same night every week and many times it is led by older adults who have been through what you could be going through. I did a bible study with a few friends my freshmen year and it didn't go so well, we didn't meet routinely and we led it. I am not saying that you shouldn't do a bible study with friends, I am just warning you that it is harder because of each others different schedules. Currently, I am going to a bible study led by adults in an organization I am in. We have it once a week and you always know when it happens and where. We talk about things going on in life and just hang out while getting to know the Lord more intimately.

At Texas A&M, we have a campus wide bible study called Breakaway that is held every Tuesday and is open to anyone and everyone. Your school may have something similar to this. For Breakaway, we have a professional speaker you gives a lesson and a band comes to play. It is like youth group back in high school.

Going to church just isn't enough, during the week so much goes on in your life that you need to be continually poured into. It is easy to go to church on Sundays and get lost in life during the week. You also get to meet so many new friends by joining a bible study.
