We’re continuing our series on listening for Jesus inside spiritual disciplines – because listening is inherently part of practices such as rest, reading scripture, or prayer. In these practices, we are having conversations with God, which means in these practices, we can hear Him louder.
Today, Marnie is with Amanda Bible Williams, co-founder of She Reads Truth, talking about listening for Jesus in scripture.
If you are longing to hear God speak into your life, whether it’s for a specific circumstance or because you’re longing to know Him deeper, reading scripture is the place to start. Being in scripture is a discipline that helps us to learn and know and recognize His voice.
Reading His Word leads to hearing His words.
Friend, if you want to hear God louder through scripture, this episode is for you.
Marnie and Amanda discuss:
- How anything we read in our Bibles “counts.”
- Rhythms and creative ways to read the Word regularly.
- How community helps us stay in the Word.
- What hearing God through scripture is like.
- A personal story from Amanda of hearing God’s promises for her family through scripture.
