Growing in understanding
Question: “How do we grow in knowledge and understanding of Scripture?”
Answer: “Ask more questions”.
If you want to grow in knowledge and understanding of anything, asking questions is a great way to go about it! The sure and true way to stagnate in anything is to simply be satisfied with your current level of development and understanding and let yourself slowly atrophy.
So, if you want to grow in your knowledge and understanding of Scripture, ask questions about it! If you read a passage which contains lots of things in it that you don’t understand, get a good study Bible, find a Bible geek and keep asking questions until you’re satisfied with the answers!
That’s what I tell my friend… Ask and you shall receive, seek and you shall find, knock and the door shall be opened… Can you suggest a Bible geek? Or website?
The Catholic Answers Forums are a good place to begin, as well as a decent Study Bible.
With regards to finding a Bible Geek, most Bible studies have one. Failing that, just send an email to any blogs you follow!
