62: Anchored By The Word
A locked door, a worn Bible, a quiet glow—those childhood snapshots taught me something I couldn’t name yet: time in Scripture changes a person. I build on that memory to explore why studying the Bible is not a checkbox but a lifeline that reveals who God is and, in turn, steadies who we are.
Psalm 19 frames the value of God’s word—reviving the soul, enlightening the eyes—and why reading the whole story reveals our need for Jesus. From the early days of depending on study guides to learning to sit with the text itself, I talk about confusion, dry spells, and the slow growth of desire that comes from simply returning to the page. You’ll hear practical tools drawn from Jen Wilkin’s five P’s—purpose, perspective, patience, process, and prayer—plus a clear approach to application that starts with God’s character before it moves to our response.
Life seasons shape study rhythms, so let's map real options for each one: ten focused minutes with three guiding questions, a single verse carried through the day, an audio Bible on a walk, or deep work with commentaries and notes when margin allows. Along the way, I name the lie that volume equals virtue and replace it with a better truth: faithfulness over time forms a resilient heart. Whether you’re exhausted, overwhelmed, spiritually dry, or ready to dive deep, this conversation will help you begin again with courage and clarity.
If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs a gentle reset, and leave a review to tell us what one small step you’ll take this week.
