The most comprehensive program for digging down deeply beneath the surface of the Bible.

The School of Scripture is the only implementation program of its kind that not only shows you exactly how to correctly understand biblical linguistics - but how to use a system of Scripture-study that can be applied to any portion of Scripture, at any time, for the rest of your life.

My name is Jane Johnson, and I am so happy you are here! I'm a Bible teacher and speaker, and I know what it's like to be stuck in a quiet time that isn't working. I know the craving to know God's Word but not be sure how to learn it without a pre-written Bible study to guide me. Because of that,

I'm deeply committed to teaching women a better way to Bible study.

I spent a decade neck-deep in God's Word, teaching myself how to look at word definitions, understand verb constructs correctly, recognize the narratives that word patterns tell, and use the art of cross-referencing. And in the process?

 

I not only learned the Bible in a way I never thought possible. I also learned to recognize God's voice speaking to me through His Word, directly to my unique life story. I will teach you how to, too.

“My mind is blown and my life is changed!”

The things I learned in the School of Scripture has changed my mornings and I have heard God speak to me in new ways. Hearing Him speak directly to me through His word, not through someone else's Word, is so incredible. It's been honestly mind-blowing and is truly life-changing. Jane is the real deal and an incredible teacher. My time in God's Word will never be the same.

Guided SOS Study through Psalm 37

“I thought I needed to get back on my medication to learn this. But then God stepped in.”

Growing up in school, I was on ADHD medicine. I stopped taking it during my first year of college because I didn't like the way it made me feel, and I wanted to attempt school without it. I ended up taking a "break" from school shortly after that and never went back. I did not want to go to the School of Scripture, but I had a strong draw to it and knew I needed to. I am so glad I did!

I called my husband on the way home after the first day and cried. I actually felt like I needed to get back on medicine just to grasp what she was teaching. I felt like I wasn't capable. I had never been able to read the Bible and study it in a way that I clearly understood. I've never felt like I could find answers to questions I had along the way as I read, but I've always wanted to be able to, so I knew I had to go back and see it through if there was a chance it would help me.

 

I prayed that night and asked God to help me focus and learn without medicine because I really, really wanted to learn what Jane was teaching and to be able to dive deeper into Scripture on my own. The next morning, it all started to click! And by the end, I couldn't get enough! I felt a fire and freshness to reading and studying that I hadn't felt in a long time. I left feeling like I had to tell any and everyone about it because it was so good. I feel completely capable of digging into the Word on my own!! There is no doubt that Jane's teaching is Holy Spirit-led and truly so amazing! I spoke to several other women who said the same thing - that they were intimidated in the beginning, but by the end, they couldn't get enough and just wanted to read and read and read and study God's Word using Jane's digging method. I cannot recommend the School of Scripture enough! I can't wait to go again and bring all the women in my life with me!

Frequent Questions

What is the School of Scripture?

The School of Scripture (SOS) is a comprehensive program for Christian women who are ready and eager to deepen their knowledge of the Bible by correctly studying and understanding biblical linguistics.

is it the same as inductive bible study?

SOS follows the same foundational principles of inductive Bible study methods but heavily emphasizes linguistic study through word etymology, definitions, patterns, and usage to tell a richer narrative of a passage.

what do i need to bring to sos?

Not much! Just a reference Bible, prayer journal, phone or laptop, and (most importantly) an expectant heart and mind that's ready to learn. (Don't forget: there's no spiritual gift of learning - that's for everyone.)

what's the difference between camp sos and sos Live?

Camp SOS is a small, intimate, retreat-style event in Bend, Oregon (where I live) with no more than 30 attendees. SOS Live! is hosted at your church with a minimum of 50 attendees, and you can choose to have me teach it live at your event or stream videos from a previously recorded live event. Both teach the same content. Simply put, with Camp SOS, you come to me. And, for SOS Live!, I come to you.

Do you have a question that wasn't answered?

“My walk with the Lord is forever changed!”

In my 25 years of following Jesus, I have done every devotional under the sun. I got many “Aha!” moments from them, but it was hit or miss. I often struggled to find the right group or book study. Then, six months ago, I decided to attend School of Scripture. My goal was to find a way to fill in the dry spells, to draw close to God even when I wasn't participating in a small group or reading a particularly captivating devotional. What I found instead was a way to engage daily, to spend my mornings in conversation with my Savior. This newfound intimacy with the Lord is so incredible that I often find myself lifting my hands in praise at my kitchen table to thank Him for revealing Himself to me so clearly and so beautifully through the study of His word.
