As believers in Jesus Christ living in a world that’s saturated with the deception of our enemy, we need an anchor for our souls. We need Truth that cannot be shaken—Truth that does not change with the whims of human nature. We need Truth that transforms us from the inside out. That Truth is the Word of God. By consistently nestling ourselves in God’s Word, we will discover the truth that sets us free (John 8:32) and the abundant life it brings as we submit to it. If you desire to go deeper into God’s Word and unpack the truths that we find there, then this is the podcast for you!
