Fill in and save each daily section as you study during the week.
NOTE on "Key Verses" - There are no "correct" or "incorrect" Key Verses.
The Key Verses are any verses from the daily Bible readings which particularly speak to you on that day. The Study Report will ask you not only to type the verses into your Report, but also to write them out by hand (not into the Report) while speaking them aloud. This will be a way for you to internalize some of the texts which you are studying, and have them in your memory for whenever there is a future need.
Submit the completed file to the relevant Assignment Box in Canvas by 9am the following Monday.
