5 Ways to Deepen Your Come Follow Me Study in 2026

Studying the gospel through Come, Follow Me is such a beautiful opportunity to grow closer to the Savior. However, our study can sometimes feel rushed or routine. Here are five simple ways to invite the Spirit more fully and make your scripture study a truly meaningful part of your day.

1. Begin with Prayer

Before opening your scriptures, take a quiet moment to pray. Ask Heavenly Father to help you see what He wants you to learn today. A prayerful heart opens the door for personal revelation and turns simple reading into a spiritual conversation.

2. Write What You Feel

Keep a faith journal or a study journal nearby and record impressions, questions, or tender mercies that stand out as you study. Writing helps you recognize patterns and see how God’s hand is present in your life—especially over time. Our study journals are designed exactly for this purpose.

3. Connect the Stories to Your Own Life

When you read about faithful people like Ruth, Esther, or Daniel, think about how their courage applies to your challenges today. The Old Testament is filled with imperfect people who chose faith. How can we be like them? Reflecting on their stories can inspire us to face our own trials with strength and determination.

4. Share Insights with Someone

Discuss your thoughts with your family, a friend, or share your insights in Sunday School. Teaching or sharing even a small insight invites deeper understanding and strengthens testimonies together. It’s amazing how discussing our perspectives can deepen our faith and understanding.

5. Create a Sacred Study Space

Set aside a peaceful spot for scripture study—a cozy chair, soft music, or a favorite candle. A calm environment invites stillness, focus, and the Spirit. Your study space should feel welcoming and sacred, a place where you can connect with God.

The Importance of Consistency

Deepening your Come, Follow Me study isn’t about doing more—it’s about inviting the Savior into the moments you already have. Consistency is key. By making scripture study a regular part of your day, you create a habit that nurtures your spirit.

Finding Joy in the Journey

As you embark on this journey of faith, remember that it’s not just about the destination. Each moment spent in study is an opportunity to grow. You may find joy in the little things, like a verse that resonates with you or a prayer that brings peace.

Embracing Community

Connecting with others can enhance your study experience. Whether it’s through a study group, family discussions, or online forums, sharing insights can enrich your understanding. You’ll find that others’ perspectives can illuminate aspects of scripture you hadn’t considered before.

The Role of Reflection

Take time to reflect on what you’ve learned. After your study sessions, consider journaling about your experiences. What stood out to you? How did you feel? Reflection helps solidify your learning and allows you to see the bigger picture of God’s plan in your life.

Incorporating Creativity

Consider incorporating creativity into your study. You might draw, paint, or create visual representations of your insights. Engaging with scripture in a creative way can deepen your understanding and make the experience more enjoyable.

Conclusion

As you invite the Spirit into your scripture study, you’ll begin to feel His guidance and love more clearly in every part of your life. 🌿
