➤ Introduction:
Begin the lesson by asking learners about their experiences with the Bible.
Where have they seen or used it? What do they know about it?

➤ Brainstorming:
Facilitate a short brainstorming session on the meaning of the word
“inspired.” Guide learners to understand it as something influenced, motivated,
or guided by a divine power.

➤ Explanation:
Explain that Christians believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God.
Although humans physically wrote the books, God guided their thoughts and words,
allowing His truth to be communicated to humanity.
It is a special partnership between God and human authors.
