659 // SOAP Bible Study Method Explained: How to Study Proverbs Step-by-Step [Quarter 4 Recap #2]

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a tender reminder that even the encourager needs encouragement, and even the teacher needs time to rest and be poured into. I’m sharing a personal update as I step into a summer sabbatical for the rest of July—a season of soul retreat, stillness, and deeper intimacy with the Lord. We’re also introducing a simple yet powerful tool for your quiet time: the SOAP method. As we walk through the Book of Proverbs together this month, this practice will help you reflect more deeply on Scripture—whether you’re journaling, walking, or listening on the go. If you’ve ever felt unsure about how to stay spiritually grounded during busy seasons or breaks from routine, this episode will show you a grace-filled way forward. You’ll also receive a Biblical affirmation to carry in your heart this month, plus a special journal prompt to guide your time with God. Just because the podcast is pausing doesn’t mean the growth has to stop. 🎁 2025 Top 10 Giveaway — Here’s How to Enter! 🎁 As a thank-you for supporting Circle Time for the Soul, I’m hosting a special giveaway — and entering is easy! ✨ How to Enter: 1️⃣ Leave a written review on Apple Podcasts or Podbean 2️⃣ Take a screenshot of your review 3️⃣ Post your screenshot inside the Facebook group Christian Woman Growing in Faith and include #giveaway2025 https://www.facebook.com/groups/circletimeforthesoul ✨ Already left a review before?
