Betty Johansen has released two inductive Bible study workbooks authored by her late mother, Elizabeth Johansen.
-- Two Bible study workbooks developed by educator Elizabeth Johansen are now available to the public through Betty Johansen, who has made them accessible via her online platform. Created for structured classroom use, the guides offer readers a practical framework for inductive Bible study — a method built on active engagement with Scripture rather than passive reading.

The workbooks are designed for readers using the inductive study method, which centers on observation, interpretation, and application. Rather than offering fixed conclusions, the method asks readers to examine passages closely, develop their own questions, and draw insights from context — an approach the guides are built to support.
The workbooks trace their origins to Elizabeth Johansen's classroom work at a local high school, where she developed structured materials for Old and New Testament courses over the course of her teaching career. After her passing, Betty Johansen recognized their continued relevance and made them available to the public.
The workbooks draw from Elizabeth's background in religious education and classroom teaching, where structured lesson development played a central role in helping students engage with biblical material. They present step-by-step guidance for individuals or small groups, particularly those seeking a clear, repeatable study process.
Alongside shorter, direct questions, the workbooks include open-ended prompts that ask readers to develop their own interpretations and articulate their conclusions — a feature Johansen notes makes them well-suited for group discussion settings.
The guides break down complex passages into manageable sections, maintaining a focus on analysis and real-life application. Readers work through exercises covering contextual understanding, paraphrasing, and reflection — a structure designed to build consistent study habits over time.
The release comes amid growing interest in independent Bible study resources, as readers increasingly seek tools that allow them to engage with Scripture at their own pace while following a structured approach.
A former science teacher in West Texas, Betty Johansen, entered the field of education later in life. She applied her classroom experience to writing about Biblical topics and faith-based fiction for young readers. Her teaching background continues to shape her approach, blending instructional discipline with faith-based exploration to make biblical study more approachable for modern readers.
