How to Study the Bible - Bible Study Made Simple

Nicole Unice noticed something that a lot of Christians quietly struggle with: they read the Bible regularly but do not feel like it is actually changing anything. Her podcast, How to Study the Bible, tackles that gap head-on using her "Alive Method" of biblical interpretation -- a practical framework for observation, interpretation, and application that turns passive reading into active engagement. Over 287 weekly episodes, Nicole walks listeners through specific books of the Bible (Ecclesiastes, Romans, Matthew, Daniel) and topical studies on joy, contentment, and prayer. Her teaching style is warm and relational, the kind where you feel like she genuinely cares that you get this rather than just performing knowledge. She uses visual illustrations and real-life connections that make ancient texts feel relevant without cheapening them. The 4.7-star rating from nearly 400 reviews reflects a growing audience that values practical Bible study tools over abstract theology. What sets this apart from other study-oriented podcasts is the emphasis on method. Nicole is not just teaching you what the Bible says -- she is teaching you how to study it for yourself. That distinction matters. Transcripts and study guides accompany episodes for listeners who want to take notes and go deeper. If you have ever finished a Bible study feeling like you learned about someone else's interpretation but never quite found your own footing in the text, Nicole's approach is designed specifically for you.
