May 20, 2022 028 - Learning to view the Scripture through its correct Context with Bree Blum from Intentional Filling
Introduction: Bree Blum is the Ministry Leader + Community Connector of Intentional Filling, an online ministry that seeks to help women intentionally study the context of Scripture to become rooted in the Word of God. Bree has always been a lover of the Word, but used to struggle studying it. Since learning to read Scripture through a Middle Eastern Lens, from the perspective of the original audience, she has found confidence in the context, and a passion for getting to know the heart of God better. The same is possible for you, pinky promise!

What we chat about in today's episode: Bree shares, from the work she does in her personal ministry, all about the importance of viewing scripture through a Jewish mindset and how that impacts our personal relationship with the Lord.

- We get to know God ( and His character) better when we read through the cultural, historical, geographical and religious linguistic context.

- Getting to know Jesus as we better understand the correct context of the Word

- The difference in a Western mindset and a middle eastern mindset in reading the Bible

- How Bree herself started studying the Scripture in it's correct context and how she now has a ministry of helpoing others to do this very thing.

- Learning to see the Bible in living color

- In the Western world our faith can be one of comfort, one of wanting ease and safety. We can be hard pressed to find a church that is sinking their teeth down into the meat of the Word of God.

- How over the last two years more people are seeking comfort in their Bibles and from the Lord after all we have walked through as a people

- Evidence that the Lord is moving in this generation

- Becoming familiar with your own study Bible – learning how to use the resources inside the covers of your Bible

- The power of starting our Bible reading in Genesis and learning the backstory of the New Testament

-Bree encourages us to get comfortable writing in our Bibles, taking notes in the margins, underlining and highlighting …

- The importance of names in Judaism

- Don't be afraid to use Google to search out information, as long as you are checking multiple sources as we all know anyone can put anything online

- Bree's favorite resources in studying the Word

- Devotion takes time, we cannot grow by checking our Bible reading off of a to-do list

- Community being huge to our walks with the Lord and each other, fulfilling the two greatest commandments

- Not shying away from hard questions

- Biblical feasts and their importance to us as believers today
