Hello friend!
What better way to learn about God then to read His love letter to us. Yes, the Bible was written by several different authors BUT it was completely inspired by God.
In this episode we talk about different translations of the Bible and why I personally enjoy a study Bible. If you do not own a physical Bible, no worries my friend, there is a free Bible app you can download and the cool thing is it has the option to view different translations.
The two Bibles I talk about in this episode are Bibles I have at my house and use. My favorite and most used one (I have had the longest) is The Life Application Study Bible, NIV by Zondervan. The other Bible is the MacArthur Study Bible, ESV, by Crossway. If you would like a physical Bible there are SOOOOO many places where you can purchase one, you can always look at thrift stores and book stores, of course Walmart and Amazon. There is also a website called christianbook.com and they have great deals throughout the year and I believe they offer discounts on ones that are slightly defective. If you want a very beautiful Bible, check out on IG @lovealldesignco.
Challenge: Continue to read daily, minimum of 10 minutes that is BIBLE only (not devotional or bible study) and then write out a verse that spoke to you. Next, lets get more comfortable with prayer. Pray before you read, that the Lord will help guard you from distractions and open your heart and ears to learn what He would have for you to hear that day. Then afterwards a prayer that the Lord will help you keep His word on your heart and ways you can implement His word in your life.
@Callieammons is the enneagram coach I had mentioned I worked with, she is awesome and I would highly recommend following her if you have IG, she is a HUGE lover of Christ and just radiates joy.
In the episode I mentioned "level 500 christianity" and I just want to say that I was using this as a joke and there is no levels of christianity. There is matureness that comes from growing and diving deeper in your relationship with God, but no perfect level that we strive to hit. Our goal as christians is to be more like Jesus, continuing to give deeper in our relationship with Him and share the gospel :)
