Ep. 014 | Biblical Interpretation 101

Reading Scripture isn’t meant to be a passive experience—it’s an invitation to step into God’s story with intentionality and awe. In this episode, we’re diving into the foundational skill every believer needs: biblical interpretation.

We’ll talk about what it means to approach the Bible thoughtfully, learning how to peel back our modern perspectives and cultural assumptions so we can see the text as it was originally written and meant to be understood. It’s so easy to let our personal experiences, emotions, or even popular teachings shape how we read the Word, but if we want to know God’s truth—we have to be willing to set aside our lenses and go back to the source.

This episode breaks down the basics: how context shapes meaning, why genre matters, how to ask good questions of the text, and what it looks like to move from interpretation to transformation. Because studying the Bible isn’t just about getting smarter—it’s about being formed by the truth that’s already been spoken.

If you’ve ever wanted to understand Scripture more deeply, this episode is your starting point. Grab your Bible, your notebook, and a teachable spirit—we’re going back to the basics of how to rightly handle the Word of Truth.
