    Why don't I read the Bible like I should?

    Why don't I read the Bible like I should?

    Most of us would probably say we don’t read the Bible as much as we should, so I think this is a good question to ask.

    Why don’t I read the Bible like I should? It comes down to two things for me. I share those in this episode, plus, some encouragement for you.

    How I Learned to Memorize Scripture...And You Can Too!

    We’ve been talking about Spiritual Growth, and last week I mentioned a small booklet that helped me memorize scripture. Now, trust me…I’m just like you! Memorizing verses isn’t easy, but after reading this booklet, I decided to commit some time to it. Here are my results…

    How and Why to Meditate on God's Word

    How and Why to Meditate on God's Word

    There is an internal conversation going on in our hearts. Often, it's a repeating chorus. We play it over and over. Too many times, these words, these repeated choruses, damage us. Lies we’ve been told, lies we tell ourselves. Over and over, we play the same songs. Fears about the future, pain from the past, dreaded expectations. 
    But to meditate on God’s word is to change the tune. This is what we're talking about in today's episode.

    2 Ways to Build Your Bible Muscle...Every Day

    2 Ways to Build Your Bible Muscle...Every Day

    In this episode, we’re talking about Spiritual Growth.
    Hebrews 5:14 says, “Solid food is for those who are mature, who through training have the skill to recognize the difference between right and wrong.”
    Spiritual maturity doesn’t just happen with the passage of time. The recipients of the letter to the Hebrews had been believers long enough to be teachers themselves. Instead, the writer says they needed to be taught again the basics of the Christian faith. 
    How about you? What would your growth assessment be? Not to worry, whatever it is, you can change it.  
    Spiritual maturity comes to those who train for it. And that's just what we're doing in this series on Spiritual Growth.

God Speaks!

This is was sent to me while I was meeting with The Lord and was praying over my marriage, children & ministry. This was such God’s timing to remind me that I serve Him ultimately and that I do not need to look to others but to Him! Thank you Heather for allowing The Lord to use you! And encourage me.

Quick Truth Bites

Sometimes it’s hard to get into a Bible study because they take such a time commitment, that not everyone has time for in every season of life. Great for the busy-seasons of life to get a quick bite of Truth. Feeds my soul one bite at a time.
