How do you lead a dynamite bible study?
I’m going to be the Spiritual Life Assistant on my hall at college next year. As part of that, I will lead a Bible Study once a week for all of the other girls. First semester usually goes really well, but by second semester, people become busy and stressed out, and just stop coming to bible study all together.
Do you have any ideas of how I can make a bible study more attractive and super productive so that college students will come, even when they are overloaded and stressed out?
Teach the Bible chapter by chapter.
For instance, start in the Book of Romans. Teach one chapter at a time, all the verses. When you’re done with Romans, go on to the next Book, 1 Corinthians, and so on

Start with a "What would you do in this situation?" acted out by participants.

He promised that one has only to pray and the prayer will be answered.
Who knows, maybe your mob will fall for the same line.

What you experienced is common. Just do your best. People like to ask and answer questions that is a good way to do bible study. But you have to control those who would dominate the time. When you have someone like that it frustrates the others. Bring in interesting facts that go with the lesson. like history or culture. Do a Beth Moore lesson on DVD i loved the one she did on Daniel. Lots of homework though. You could ask a church to sponsor by giving you the DVD/

we had a high school guys bible study last year every friday morning at 7:30 with a teacher and any students who would come… this is a christian school with 1000+ people. the first semester me and the teacher were the only ones there regularly. Well, i started bringing a bag of bojangles biscuits every now and then and i can’t tell you how many people showed up. Now, after a few bible studies most of them told me they wished they had been coming all year and even when we didnt bring biscuits they continued to come. Sometimes something simple like that helps a bible study get started or get people back into it. just a suggestion

By including prayer to Mary, the mother of Jesus Christ. Mary revealed to Fr. Dominic (who later became St. Dominic) that his preaching did not bear fruit because he did not include her. He took her advice and his preaching came to bear much fruit.
Peace!
