The Overcomer Bible Studies
Searching the Scriptures to See Christ
The Bible is more than a collection of doctrines to be learned or facts to be mastered. It is the unfolding revelation of God’s purpose in His Son.
Jesus said:
“Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.”
— John 5:39
These Christ-centered Bible studies are written with that conviction. We want to understand each passage in its historical and Scriptural context, while always asking where it leads us in Christ.
From the promises and shadows of the Old Testament to their fulfillment in the New, our desire is to see the unity of God’s purpose—and to enter more fully into the life He has given us in His Son.
Our Approach
We study the Scriptures to know the Lord, understand His ways, and walk in His truth. Knowledge has its proper place, but its purpose is to bring us into a deeper faith, obedience, and fellowship with Christ.
Each study considers the central message of the passage, its setting, and the Scriptures that help explain it. We trace the promises, patterns, and types of the Old Testament in the light of their fulfillment in Christ, allowing the apostles’ teaching to guide our understanding.
Along the way, we explore life in the Spirit, sonship and inheritance, the work of the cross, and the believer’s calling to overcome through faith. These truths belong in daily life—in our homes, relationships, trials, decisions, and service to others.
All Scripture quotations are from the King James Version.
“Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures.”
— Luke 24:45
Current Bible Studies
Old Testament Studies
Job brings us face to face with suffering, human limitations, and the wisdom of God. His story challenges easy explanations and teaches us to trust the Lord when His purposes are hidden from our understanding.
This study follows Job through his loss, his questions, and his encounter with God. We consider what his experience reveals about the Lord’s dealings with His people and the difference between knowing about God and knowing Him through His dealings with us.
New Testament Studies
Reigning in Life — Romans Through the Eyes of the Overcomer
A continuing study through Romans centered upon the extraordinary declaration:
“For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.”
— Romans 5:17
Romans reveals both our need and God’s abundant provision in His Son. We follow Paul’s argument through sin and righteousness, justification by faith, union with Christ in His death and resurrection, and life in the Spirit.
Our aim is to understand what God has accomplished in Christ and how believers walk in the good of it. Reigning in life begins with receiving His grace and learning to live in dependence upon the One who is our life.
Foundational Studies
Alive in Christ — New Beginnings
The Christian life begins with new life in Jesus Christ. This foundational study introduces the truths that establish believers in their relationship with God and help them grow in faith.
We consider what it means to belong to Christ, to receive His Word, and to walk in fellowship with Him. Whether you are a new believer or returning to the foundations, the purpose is to strengthen your understanding and encourage a life rooted in the Lord Himself.
Future Studies
Additional studies will be added as they are developed, exploring the Scriptures with the same purpose: to see Christ more clearly and to walk more faithfully in Him.
