The Bible can feel intimidating — but was it ever meant to be?

In Week 3 of Sola Scriptura: Restoring Scripture to Its Rightful Place, Pastor Brian Russell explores why God gave us His Word not simply to inform us, but to reveal Himself to us. Scripture invites us to hear, understand, believe, and obey a God who desires to be known.

Along the way, we'll consider whether our biggest obstacle is always understanding what scripture says — or sometimes being willing to let it change us. Because the greatest gift of scripture isn't simply what we learn. It's who we come to know.

Is the Bible enough?

We're constantly tempted to look for something more — more direction, more certainty, more satisfaction, more answers. In Week 2 of Sola Scriptura: Restoring Scripture to Its Rightful Place, Pastor Chad Manbeck explores the sufficiency of scripture and what it means to trust that God has given His people what they need for salvation, godliness, and faithful obedience.

This week asks us to consider not just whether we believe scripture is enough, but whether we actually live like it is. Where in your life are you looking for an answer, identity, direction, satisfaction, or authority that God has already addressed in His Word?

Who gets the final word in your life?

We all look somewhere to decide what is true, good, and trustworthy. In Week 1 of Sola Scriptura: Restoring Scripture To Its Rightful Place, lead pastor at Richwoods Christian Church Chad Manbeck, explores why every person lives under some authority — and why followers of Jesus can trust God's Word above every competing voice.

Along the way, we'll consider what makes scripture different from human authorities, why God's voice is worthy of our trust, and a question worth carrying with us: What voices have I allowed to outrank scripture?
