I enjoyed reading your article so much. Then I noticed it was written by Tom Obenchain! Could this be the same Tom Obenchain who lived a block away from us in Casper, Wyoming and started kindergarten with our daughter. If so, please write me!

I have done all of those things, also. Strong's Concordance is also on the net. Being a book in hand person, I still like to use what you mentioned, but I have them on a bench.
One new way I am studying the scriptures is by in depth reading of the conference editions. In that way, I get into all of the scriptures, combined with the thoughts of the author of the article. I take notes there, do cross referencing, and if the scriptures used are just singular, I often read the entire context. This has been my new way of learning and applying.

My own way to "Hasten My Scripture Study" is to Not hasten it. I don't believe in it. I have done it other ways; I studied New Testament Greek at my alma mater university. It was interesting, that is all. To me, it amounted to scripture translation trivia.
I read the scriptures to save my life. Along that line, my favorite and cherished way of using the Word is by reading One chapter a day — slowly, lingeringly, letting it drip over my heart like molasses. I want God's Spirit to have time to write on it.
I love this quote from Jeffrey Holland: "Invite them to read more slowly. . . Help them to ponder. . . Teach them to hold it up to the light and turn it. . . look and see."
