Write this Down! with Dot Bowen

In Ephesians and Colossians, we get a clear picture of the love Paul had for the church, and an example of what it means to pray for others. In this episode, Dot and Cara share some of their favorite parts of these two letters, especially focusing on the idea that we’re saved by grace through faith. They also talk about the prayers Paul writes that have helped them throughout their faith journeys, and they discuss what it means to put on the armor of God.

What is Write this Down! with Dot Bowen?

Bible teacher, author and founder of Cup of Joy Ministries, Dot Bowen, teaches listeners what it truly looks like to know, love and follow Jesus. Each week, Dot invites you to sit down with her and her daughter, Cara, to have an authentic conversation about Biblical Scripture and God’s Truth. Their honest and thought provoking conversations are full of wit and wisdom which will have you diving deeper into God’s Word.
