3B Men’s Life Groups use the acronym I.R.O.N. to engage with the Bible—both in preparation for and during our one hour weekly sessions. We see this approach as a dynamic way to experience the Living Word of God and share personal insights together.
Each week, our facilitators lead our groups in a review of a designated Bible chapter. We explore the selected chapter through the I.R.O.N. format:
I — Inspect
Read His Word slowly, then write out the passage. Taking time to meditate on Scripture allows the Holy Spirit to speak and work within us.
R — Reveal
Ask, “What is God showing me in these verses?” The Living Word meets us where we are, revealing truth according to each person’s unique season of life.
O — Own
Consider, “What is God asking me to do?” As we search our hearts in light of Scripture, His will for us becomes clearer.
N — Next Step
Decide, “How will I respond?” Begin with prayer—an essential first step. If sin is revealed, confess it to God, and take steps to walk in obedience.
