Rooted Daily with Brandon Lavy

What if you are reading your Bible and nothing happens? You don't feel any kind of transformative shift in your heart. Do you just have to wait for it to happen? Today we look at Proverbs 22 for an answer.

Did you decide to make 2020 the year that you read the whole Bible for the first time? If you did, I'm so glad for you and can't wait to hear how you are doing. Today on the podcast we talk about what you can expect as you start this new habit.

The Pharisees were reading the Scriptures, probably every day, but they were not rooted in the Word. Today we talk about the difference.

We started out with a fire in our bones for God, but at some point that enthusiasm faded. Here's why Paul says we need to get it back.

Christians want heavenly wisdom, not the earthly, sensual, demonic wisdom that James describes, but how do we really know which kind of wisdom we are truly relying on?

Christians should have tremendous confidence, that is the essence of faith, but we must be sure our confidence is based on a firm foundation. Today we talk about the ways we substitute the real promises of Scripture for false assurance.

In John 6, we find some disciples who wanted the wrong kind of bread and lost their faith because of it. How do we eat the bread that will keep us strong?

Paul wrote, “Redeem the time, because the days are evil” in Ephesians 5:16, but how do we do that? How do we make the most of 2020 when it seems like our culture is just slipping further and further away from God?

It's been another year and we've done a lot to grow in God's Word in 2019. Over the next few weeks I'll be sharing some of this year's episodes that meant the most to me and listening to what you would like to study in 2020.

For now though, from me and Lauren and the church here in Greenfield, I want to wish you a very happy holiday and I can't wait to sit back down and study with you next year!

Talking before we listen brings shame, so James says talk less and listen more. That’s not only a practical proverb, but it’s an important spiritual imperative.
