Our team is so excited about our upcoming OBS (Online Bible Study), and our community is buzzing with excitement as well! We've heard a few great questions about The God You Need to Know study—and we wanted to take some time to answer them for you.
Whether you've done dozens of Bible studies with us or this is your very first one, this guide will help you know exactly what to expect before you join us. (Already decided? You can register for the free study here now!)
Q: What makes this Bible study different from other studies on the Holy Spirit?
A: This is a great question! Most studies on the Holy Spirit begin in the New Testament at Pentecost. But in The God You Need to Know, Bible teacher Margaret Feinberg takes us on a journey through the Old Testament, uncovering how the Spirit was powerfully at work long before Acts 2. You'll meet David, Gideon, Ezekiel, and others whose lives reveal the Spirit's presence and power in surprising ways.
Our team loves the uniqueness Margaret brings to this topic, and we believe that uncovering the Spirit's work from Genesis and throughout all of Scripture will deepen our relationship with the Lord and help us see and experience God in a whole new way.
Q: Is this study "charismatic" or focused on spiritual gifts?
A: This study isn't debating theology or styles of worship. Margaret approaches the topic from a deeply biblical perspective, focusing on who the Holy Spirit is and how the Spirit has been at work since the very beginning of creation. No matter what your church background, you'll walk away with a richer understanding of the Spirit's presence throughout the Bible—and in your own life.
Q: This timing is not good for me. Can I buy the study guide and do it on my own?
A: Absolutely! You can purchase the study guide and go at your own pace anytime! However, when you join the free FaithGateway Online Bible Study, you get so much more than a book. You'll receive:
- FREE bonus downloads—breath prayer cards, printable study tools, and Scripture coloring sheets
- A weekly guided reading plan via email to keep you on track
- Access to a private online community where thousands are learning together
- A weekly reflection email, so you feel renewed and ready for each session's material
- Encouragement, prayer, and practical application ideas from others on the same journey
All of the above is FREE whether you buy the study guide or not!
Buying the study alone gives you the content—but joining the OBS helps you live it out in a supportive online forum. While you can go through the study alone, we think you'll love doing it with us and our community!
Q: What will I learn?
A: You'll discover how to recognize the Holy Spirit's presence in your everyday life and how to respond to His leadership with confidence and joy. Through biblical teaching and real-life application, you'll learn how to:
- Experience the Spirit's nearness and guidance in the middle of daily decisions
- Draw on the Spirit's strength and comfort during seasons of struggle
- Cultivate a deeper awareness of His presence in ordinary moments
- Walk in greater peace, purpose, and power as you follow His lead
This isn't just head knowledge—it's an invitation to live more closely connected to God every single day!
Q: What do I need to participate?
A: It's completely free to join! When you sign up, you'll get access to all six teaching videos, a free week one study guide download, and the encouragement of a thriving online community!
Q: What if I'm behind or can't keep up?
A: No problem! You can watch the videos on your own schedule. We'll also include a catch-up week at the end of the study, so you can pause, reflect, or rewatch any sessions you missed.
Q: Who is Margaret Feinberg?
A: Margaret is a seasoned Bible teacher and author known for helping people discover God's joy and wonder in Scripture. Her warmth, humor, and storytelling make even deep theological truths easy to understand—and life-changing to apply.
