There's a lot of loaded language when it comes to putting on and taking off our beliefs, but today Lore Wilbert and I talk about what it looks like to imitate Jesus in his response to doubt. We share a bit of our own struggles that lead us to ask if God is good and end with a conversation about how to give and take in real friendship.

If you're like me you've read the Bible and you've done Bible studies, but you wonder how people take notes and study the Bible without any direction.

Today Felicity walks me through how she has learned to study the Bible. For reference, I'm going to include the notes I took during this conversation. These are now written in the back of my Bible to help guide me through future studies.

"What is happening?" Take the time to jot an outline as you go to help you slow down and focus on each piece.

Pick out repeated words

"How does this tie to the Old Testament?"

"What makes me uncomfortable?"

Homeschool questions that Elizabeth uses with her kids but realized would help with Bible study.

"What is the 'so what' for my life?"

"What is the 'so what' for an unbeliever?"

Have you noticed a difference between non-fiction devotionals and Bible study books that really help you dig in and study the Word of God? My guest, Lydia, is an editor for Crossway and has worked on several Bible study projects. She lays out how she sees the two to be distinct and how realizing how few there are inspired her to write her own studies.

You can find Lydia HERE, and her study on Ephesians HERE if you want to dig in and dig deeper yourself!

In our episode a couple of weeks ago Jen Wilkin shared with us that 43% of Christians believe that Jesus was just a good teacher and not God. Today you get to join us a living room theological conversation. Courtney, Joanna, and I are going to talk about how scripture shows how Jesus fulfilled the Old Testament prophecy. Knowing these things intimately will help us cause us to grow and live out resulting in evangelization.

You can find "Behold and Believe" here. Be sure to follow Courtney Doctor and Joanna Kimbrel on Instagram to find more of their resources.

I can't be the only one who struggles with anger as I try to navigate motherhood. Today I'm joined by father and grandfather Bob Flayhart to talk about how as Christians we cope with the days when the anger bubbles up and we end up blowing it. I hope you will listen until the end because the grace and hope offered moved me deeply!

As we walk through a broken world it is easy to feel alone and disconnected from hope. We get lost and trapped in a hopeless cycle of comparing our difficult circumstances to the journeys of others. Today I’m talking to Ruth Chou Simons about how to find hope as we navigate our walk through the already not yet promise of the gospel.
