For a chunk of Christians, Bible study includes studing it in its natural habitat as well as caged between to covers. By this I mean:
1. studying it's use in creeds, confessional documents, catechism ..
2. studying it's expression in visual arts, literature, music (think Milgrom's Visual Midrash)
3. studying it's interpretation throughout history e.g. studying an early church father's sermons or commentaries
4. studying pseudepigrapha and aporcypha and it's relationship to the Bible
5. . . .
For this we need to be able to use a non-biblical text as the base of a workflow. Please expand the workflow to allow this.

for visio divina we need to be able to specify a piece of visual art as input.
as illustrated by A Gracious Rain by Richard H. Schmidt, we need to be able to use liturgical text (collects) as input.Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
