Hi, I’m Charles Bridges. I’m a writer, teacher, and a sincere lover of God’s Word. I started Interactive Bible Studies to make God’s Word come alive in practical, creative, and deeply personal ways.

Over the years, I’ve written hundreds of devotionals, led small groups, taught teens and adults, and worked to help people see that Bible study isn’t just for scholars. Bible study is for everyone.

I believe Bible study should be interactive, relational, and yes—even fun. My goal is to help you go deeper with God, one chapter at a time.
