  • Episode 75: 6 Tools to Go Deeper in Bible Study

    Today’s episode was beautifully written by one of the Intentional Filling’s newest Writing Team members, Joy Moore of Winchester, Virginia, who lives with the love of her life for the past 33 years, her husband Harold.  She is the mother of five adult daughters and two sons-in-love.  Both her desire to write and to follow Jesus began when she was in the 6th grade, which she doesn’t think is a coincidence.  She is passionate about helping people encounter the Bible as the original hearers did, not just to gain knowledge, but to gain a greater understanding of God and His redeeming love woven throughout the Old and New Testaments.

    I’m excited to share Joy’s list of tools that have helped her to go deeper in her Bible study.

  • Episode 73: Biblical Context Matters

    Each of us has a list of colossal moments in our lives that mark us, change us, and set a true turning point. Such as the events of 9/11, graduation from college, moving into our first place, and experiencing our first (and hopefully last) global pandemic.

    They are the context markers of our lives.

    Learn how a shift in perspective can help you find confidence in the collection of God's colossal moments, the Bible.

  • Episode 71: Headed to the Father's House

    The Middle Eastern Lens was first brought to us through Jesus & Women Study.  Not familiar to you?  Check out episodes 23 thru 33!  It helped us to better learn about the heart and character of Jesus through learning about His world in the 1st-century and to begin to look at the words in the Bible from the perspective of the original audience.

    Now we have an opportunity to once again sit under the remarkable teaching of Kristi McLelland through her new 7-week study, where we’ll begin to see through that same Middle Eastern Lens, the outward expansion of the early church and how the gospel began to spread along the ground.

    Today we wrap up this series looking to the future and what God calls us to until it is time to go home.

    Are you ready?  Let’s grow!
