If you're looking for a way to tackle your Bible reading, you might like the S.O.A.P journal technique. SOAP is a simple method for reading and applying God's word to our lives.
SOAP stands for Scripture, Observation, Application and Prayer and involves four simple steps:
- Scripture – Read a short Bible passage out loud and/or write it out.
- Observation – What do you notice about the verses? What do you think the main message is? What verses, words or ideas jump out to you?
- Application – Ask God how he wants you to apply the verse to your own life.
- Prayer – Pray for yourself and/or for others.

Cliff shared, what he calls, a "Deck of Cards Workout". Here's how it's done:
Things to know:
Cliff shared, what he calls, a "Deck of Cards Workout". Here's how it's done:
- Take a deck of playing cards minus the jokers.
- Assign an exercise for each suit.
- Draw a card, then do that number of repetitions of the exercise assigned to that suit.
Things to know:
- Cards 2-10 are face value; jacks are 11; queens are 12; kings are 13; aces are 15.
- When you complete the deck, you will have done 105 reps of each exercise.
- By modifying the exercises assigned to each suit, you can design a beginner’s level workout on up to a truly elite level workout, or you can target one part of the body (ex. an all-legs workout, all-arms workout, all-chest workout, all-abs workout, or total body workout).
- Exercises can be done with weights, resistance bands, or just one’s own bodyweight.
- Sample exercises include push-ups, dips, pull-ups, crunches, sit-ups, v-ups, leg lifts, squats, lunges, scissor kicks, high-knees, jumping jacks, curls, etc.
- If you search “Deck of Cards Workout” on YouTube, you’ll find many variations.
