CAPTIVATED BY THE WORD

CAPTIVATED BY THE WORD

this sound familiar?

"It's all so overwhelming. I don't know where to start!"

"I don't know how to really study my Bible."

“I want to know the context and background, but don’t know what to do.”

"No matter what I do, I just can't focus during my quiet time."

"I know studying the Bible is important, but I'm so busy and tired. How am I supposed to find the time?"

“I want to connect with God and be empowered by the Holy Spirit through His Word, but I need help.”

"I want to dig into the Word and experience its power in my life, but I don't know how!"

Sound familiar?

I'VE BEEN THERE!

A few years ago, I desperately wanted to go deeper in the Bible. I was tired of surface level teachings, and I wanted to know the context, wanted to really study but didn’t have anyone to help me or teach me.

I started studying the Bible as best as I knew how. I read a few books on how to study the Bible. I tried asking my pastor. I read guides and watched videos on how other people did it, but I always found that it was either too feelings-based or too objective.

I wanted to understand the context of the Bible, dig deep into it objectively, and allow the Holy Spirit to speak to me through the Word however He wanted to, even if my understanding was not perfect.

I was driving in my car one day and the Lord just started downloading in my head the gap that I was missing. And He started just inspiring this course. He literally gave me the framework for almost this entire course when I pulled over on the side of the road and started writing it in my notes app.

I started implementing this framework into my own time with the Lord – however that looked like in a messy life — and focused on just spending time with Him and being faithful to get in the Word.

Now, I feel confident studying the Word and hearing the Holy Spirit speak to me through it. And I have simple, practical, and actionable steps to spend time with the Lord, no matter what happens in life, whether I have an hour to sit with Jesus or only five minutes – or even when I have to talk to Him on the go!

This is everything I wish I had known before going to seminary, just a few years ago when I was hungry to dig into the Word and connect with God in a deeper way…but didn’t quite know how.

the way i see it, you life can stay the same, or it can change today.

You can keep opening up your Bible every now and then and feeling like you get nothing out of it.

You can keep feeling far from God because you never hear His voice.

You can keep saying, "I'll have my quiet time later!" and feeling guilty when it doesn't happen.

You can keep reading the Bible and have no idea what on earth it says or means.

You can keep wondering how other people can get so much from the Bible and differentiate between what's true and what's not.

You can keep feeling bleh when someone asks you a question about the Bible or Christianity and you have no clue how to answer.

You can keep living a mediocre, so-so life and just go through the "Good Christian Girl" routine without ever taking ownership of your faith.

OR that can all change right now.

Imagine with me for a moment…

what if you could:

  • 😆

    Finally feel confident when reading the Bible and not totally overwhelmed, resting in the fact that you have the tools and know-how of gleaning brilliantly impactful insights from the verses...

  • 🤓

    Know how to decipher those confusing passages (even the ones you don’t like — GASP) and come out on top, having a thorough knowledge of what the passage meant…

  • 🙌🏼

    FINALLY make time to spend with God in a way that works for YOU and YOUR schedule and YOUR personality and what season YOU are in (even if you’re super busy!)…

  • 💪🏽

    Turn your “I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THIS VERSE” into “I can totally figure this out!” complete with fist-pumps and happy dances when nobody is around…

  • 🔥

    Have a proven + consistent plan that takes the guesswork out of what to do or read next, whether you wake up bright-eyed and bushy tailed or hit snooze one too many times…

  • 💃🏻

    Take what you’ve learned in the Bible and your time connecting with the Lord, and start living it out in your #wholeheartedlymessy life, all while building God’s kingdom…

you CAN get the Bible Study Thing down and, as a result, step into the calling God has for you.

YOU CAN LEARN HOW YOU CONNECT WITH HIM AND ABIDE WITH HIM EVERY DAY.

You can get new revelations from scripture and hear the holy spirit speak to you.

you can thrive in your relationship with god.

it starts right here, right now with learning how to study the Bible.

"K, I'm listening. What is this all about anyway?"

GIRL, I'm glad you asked!

This is an online course that teaches you step-by-step how to effectively study the Bible, make time with God a consistent + exciting part of your life, connect with the Lord based on your personality and your schedule, and live out the Word wherever you go.

Because you're so ready to ditch the guilt and confusion and step into your God-given calling.

What you'll be learning...

  • We start off with a BANG, slap some paint beneath our eyes, and challenge all of those struggles we've had with studying the Bible head-on.

    We'll be talking about:

    • signs that we need to be in the Bible more

    • the proper mindset we should have when approaching the Bible

    • how to pray and invite the Holy Spirit into our study time

    • what to do when we don't understand the Bible or don't like what it says

    • my best tips and tricks for staying focused and engaged when reading the Bible

    • how to actually ENJOY studying the Bible and look forward to it!

  • This is where it gets real. I'll be showing you step-by-step how to figure out exactly what the Bible says and how to dig deep into the Word like a detective. (So don your Sherlock Holmes hat and grab your magnifying glass!)

    We'll be talking about:

    • where to start studying the Bible if you're a complete newbie

    • super important words and phrases to pay attention to as you study

    • how to take notes, highlight, and ask questions in a way that works for you

    • the exact steps for getting the full context, understanding what the Bible said to its original audience, and knowing who that guy took a selfie with in 782 B.C.

    • how to think for yourself and study the Bible for yourself, without the help of other Bible studies or commentaries

  • Now we'll be putting all of the information we've gathered together, tying it into a pretty package, and making sure that what we think the Bible meant is actually what the Bible meant (because misinterpretations are no bueno, amigo).

    We'll be talking about:

    • how to allow God to guide your interpretations of His Word so that you don't misinterpret it

    • checking your interpretation with scripture, logic, and experience

    • looking at every Bible passage to see Jesus

    • a guide to using commentaries the right way

    • what to do if you accidentally misinterpret scripture

  • By this point, we have successfully studied a passage inside and out (WHOOP WHOOP!), which means it's time to start making it a reality. We're going to start living out what we learn and allowing the Word to transform our hearts, minds, and lives.

    We'll be talking about:

    • questions to ask yourself when your Holy Spirit radio is fuzzy

    • PRACTICAL ways to make what you want to happen actually happen

    • one of my favorite tools for remembering what you have learned

    • how to really make the Word come alive in your life

  • In this one, I show you how to use free online resources to make the most of your study and different techniques for getting in the Word.

    We'll be talking about:

    • what to do when you don't want to study the Bible (because we've all been there!)

    • simple ways to connect with the Word when you hit snooze too many times and don't have too much time to study

    • what other resources are (like concordances, handbooks, etc.), how to use them, and what kind of information you can find in them

    • a step-by-step guide to studying the Bible digitally (because it's the 21st century, obviously)

  • Well, we now know how to study the Bible. In this module, we're talking all about how to actually make the time to study the Bible.

    We'll be talking about:

    • specific and practical ways to make studying the Bible a priority...customized to you!

    • how to make time to spend with God, even when you're super busy and life throws 934024 curveballs at you

    • what to do when your quiet time becomes bland and you need to spice things up a bit

    • My ebook —Spiritual Freedom: A Practical Guide For Standing On The Word of God + Gaining Freedom From Lies

    • a 60+ page workbook to help you tackle those roadblocks, reflect on what works best for you, and take notes that you can come back to in the future

    • videos showing you exactly how to use online resources like Blue Letter Bible

    • downloads of actual papers and projects I wrote while getting a degree in Biblical and Theological Studies that you can use as examples (for all of those who enjoy more scholarly stuff out there)

    • worksheets, checklists, and downloads to ignite your learning

    • 2 videos of me studying the Bible in real time to give you a practical view of how to study the Bible for yourself

    • examples of my own study notes

    • a list of my recommended resources for further study

    • a demonstration of the Gospel and a step-by-step guide to sharing the Gospel with others (without being awkward or weird about it)

    • and MORE!

YOU WILL WALK AWAY FROM THIS COURSE WITH EVERY TOOL YOU NEED TO connect with god, DIG DEEP INTO THE WORD, AND LIVE IT OUT.

"This coarse was a great refresher on principles of Bible study that I learned in seminary and still use to this day. It's like having the cliff notes to my hermeneutic class at DTS with Dr. Howard Hendricks." - Pastor Jesse Elizondo

"I really wish something like this would have been around when I was a teen. Teaching a technique like this would have opened the Bible up to me more, and I would be farther along in my Christian life than I am. I would have enjoyed studying His Word so much more. This is a great tool for any age. I am almost 60 and enjoy studying this way. I can't wait to introduce it to my friends and family members. Thank you, Keela, for making this available to all." - Christian Matlock, Worldwide Missionary

Meet your instructor

Keela hope

My name is Keela, and I’m passionate about leading women deeper in truth, healing, and freedom in body, soul, and spirit, and helping them live abundantly wholistically. Because that’s what Jesus lived for, died for, and rose again for — for us to experience and bring heaven on earth right here, right now!

Though I created this ecourse in high school, even after getting a Bachelor’s degree in Biblical and Theological Studies, I still stand by everything I taught in this course (and have added content since). This course contains pretty much everything I know about studying the Word and spending time with the Lord, from a Bible-college-thumping-theologian.

Everything I do, I try to keep it:

  • Bible based

  • Theologically informed

  • Spirit led

  • Individual focused

  • Missionally driven

  • Wholeheartedly messily expressed (say that three times fast, I dare you haha!)

I know the power of the Bible. I know the power of my God.

And I want every single person on planet Earth to know it, too.

Will you join me in chasing after Him with reckless abandon?

I'm here to tell you that YES, YOU CAN DO THIS.

YOU CAN BECOME THE BUTT-KICKING, GOD-FEARING, CHRIST-FOLLOWING, BIBLE-STUDYING WOMAN YOU ALWAYS WANTED TO BE.

Got questions? i’ve got answers!

  • The course starts now and never ends! It is a completely self-paced online course - you decide when you start and when you finish.

    But here's the thing. We all know that sometimes we buy stuff, completely forget about it, and end up never using it. I don't want that to happen for you -- I want you to finish this course and learn how to study the Bible and do all of the amazing things God has planned for you! So, I’m going to shoot you an email every week for six weeks as a gentle reminder that you’ve got a course to finish :)

  • How does lifetime access sound? After enrolling, you have unlimited access to this course -- across any and all devices you own.

  • Friend, I would never want you to pay for something that didn't help you at all. I want this to help you and equip you to study the Bible better! So if it doesn't work, I will definitely give you your money back.

    But I do have three things I’ll ask you to do before I give you a refund:

    1.) I ask that you complete the course first and email all of your completed worksheets to me. I want you to really put your heart into the course, really give it a solid chance before you decide it didn’t work.

    2.) I ask that you email me and *politely* tell me the reasons the course wasn’t beneficial to you. I want to continue to make this course better, and so if it didn’t work, it’s important that I can understand why.

    3.) I ask that you submit your refund request within 30 days of when you signed up for the course.

  • When you sign up for the course, you’ll make a username and password. That username and password allows you to access the course and come back to it at anytime in the future (so make sure that you remember it!).

    The course has written, audio, and video lessons that you do at your own pace. Don't worry, the videos are pre-recorded, so you don’t need to be at a certain place at a certain time. You can watch them on your own time.

    There will also be a workbook and worksheets that you go through as you watch the videos and go through the lessons. That way you’re not just learning, you’re putting it into practice in your life!

    And that's pretty much it. Easy-peasy!

  • That will depend on you. The course is entirely self-paced, so you can do it whenever you want. The entire course takes around 6-10 hours from start to finish, so if you're dedicated, you can complete it in no time!

  • Nope! All women are welcome! Teens, tweens, 20-somethings, business women, moms, aunts, grandmas, blue people, red people, orange people, green people, etc. We all have more to learn when it comes to studying the Bible!

  • Yep! The content is pretty straightforward and geared to everyone, male or female. However, the aesthetic is definitely feminine, so be prepared for that.

  • Well, most of this ecourse was designed while I was in high school, and all I can say is: the Holy Spirit really worked within me and through me. Even after getting my Bachelor’s degree in Biblical and Theological Studies from a distinguished Bible university, I can say that the information in this course is solid. It takes what I learned over four years and summarizes it into a bite-sized, easy to learn format.

  • Sure, you can. In fact, that's exactly what I did. But it took me YEARS, and it was not an easy road. I didn't have someone walking with me through everything step-by-step, and I WISH I had. Actually, that's the whole reason why I created this course: It's what I needed a couple years ago.

    Plus, you can have access to all of the information RIGHT NOW without the time-consuming researching and sifting through vague articles that really don't teach you much.

    So, yes, you can find all of it online and waste your valuable time trying to find something that works for you...or you can learn how to study the Bible TODAY, start doing it TODAY, and start living out your calling TODAY.

    I think it's a no-brainer, but that's just me.

  • Friend, I know that you just want to share what you've learned and get others in the Word, too. Believe me, it's what I want!

    But real talk? I poured my heart into this course -- my time, my money, my energy, my prayers, and my tears -- and sharing it with others for free would lessen this ecourse's impact, take advantage of me, and...let's be honest, it would be stealing.

    However, if you are some sort of ministry leader (youth pastor, small group leader, etc.), you may share it with those under your care. I understand that it would be quite difficult paying for a bunch of people, and my heart is for everyone to get in the Word. I do ask, though, that you give what you can.

    Email me at keela@wholeheartedlymessy.com for how to do this. Thank you!

  • No prob! Just email me at keela@wholeheartedlymessy.com and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can!
