Four Parts of a Good Bible Study

John Gerig

November 2025

I have looked at many collections of Bible studies for teens and have seen that nearly every one of them has four parts. If you study the Bible with your students, even if you don’t use a curriculum, I suggest that you incorporate these four parts into the structure of your time in God’s Word.

 

 Part 1: Capturing the Kids’ Interest (hook)

You could start with something like, “Open your Bible to Philippians 4.” But it’s better to begin with something interesting that relates to the day’s Scripture and hints at why the study is important. Some have called this section the ‘hook.’ Some good hooks include:

 

  • an opening question related to teen life and the topic

  • a game related to the topic

  • a skit that says something about the topic

  • a short video related to the topic ...
