Best way to kick start the last quarter of the yea

Best way to kick start the last quarter of the year! To know me is to know that Point of Grace music is so incredibly foundational to the soundtrack of my life. Everyone of their records reminds me of a season of my life and whenever I feel off track I can always get back to what’s most important with songs that have grounded me since childhood. I’m so glad I got to hear them live tonight! I’ve been feeling anxious and overwhelmed the past several weeks and now I’m feeling inspired again and more at peace 😎

“We live, we laugh & love & dance
'Cause God makes all things beautiful and perfect in His hands
We rise from the ashes of our past
'Cause we've learned the truth at last
Love is not blind
Every color shines
On God's green earth”

We can all agree that the OT genealogies are great

We can all agree that the OT genealogies are great reading matter for insomnia.

Then there are the purity laws.
And the land assignments.
And the censuses.
You get it.

It’s not a sin to say that parts of the Bible are boring, confusing, or hard to follow & understand. It just means you have Bible-reading muscles to stretch out and exercise. There are things you have to get used to and it can take time. But in the meantime, here’s one thing to keep in mind when in a less than exciting or inspiring passage of scripture -

God cares about details. He’s not careless or haphazard. He’s interested in establishing track records because He knows the only way to make His case of love & justice is to offer evidence of His faithfulness in spite of the unfaithfulness of humanity. Nothing is an accident and even when humans don’t listen and jack stuff up, He never loses control over the situation.

It’s okay if it’s boring for awhile. Stick with it until you see its beauty. It’s worth the effort!

“What does this have to do with me?” “How d

“What does this have to do with me?”

“How does this speak into what I’m going through today?”

“How does change my life?”

These aren’t bad questions, in fact, they’re good questions and we should ask them. We just shouldn’t ask them FIRST. If we’re primarily concerned with what the Bible has to do with US, we’re probably going to pass up the parts that legit will tell us nothing about life as modern humans (genealogies and law codes anyone?). Instead, we have to change our presuppositions -

1. The Bible isn’t about me. The Bible is about God and His redemptive work in the world.
2. I need to let God’s story tell me about about Himself
3. Knowing who God is, what His intentions are for humans & how He operates in the world makes up the framework I need to understand myself, my value, & my purpose on this planet.

Don’t get me wrong. the Bible will tell you a whole lot about yourself. But first let it tell you about God. Start looking for glimpses of Jesus & the Gospel. In some places He may be harder to spot than others but He’s there, His plan is there, His love is there. Always ❤️

Reading the Bible early morning is a fantastic asp

Reading the Bible early morning is a fantastic aspiration and I can’t wait to get there buuuuuuut it’s not required. If you wait for perfect, you’ll be waiting for the rest of your life. Just do it. Make the time and do it. Life is constantly changing and you’ll always have to make adjustments, navigate interruptions, and balance priorities. If this matters to you, you’ll make it happen. ❤️

There’s a lot in the Bible that troubles our mod

There’s a lot in the Bible that troubles our modern sensibilities, world views, & feelings, etc.. But you would be foolish to judge an entire movie after only seeing one scene, a show after a plot twist in S3 E5, or a novel by one conversation toward the end of the book. We know not to do it with anything else but the Bible is judged by isolated verses & stories. It doesn’t work like that. While the Bible is holy, it works just like any other story - it should be read in its entirety.

• Yes it’s hard
• Yes, it takes discipline
• Yes there may be a learning curve
• Yes there are some parts that are really boring at first

But it’s good and glorious and God’s gift to humanity. If you care at all about Jesus, take the time to read His story. Take the time to figure it out, to ask questions, to be frustrated, to not be good at it. All of those things are okay. God can handle it all - I promise. Just show up. He’ll meet you there.

• If you’ve fallen off your Bible-reading-in-a-year plan, you can still pick it back up.

• If you didn’t start on January 1st, you can still start now.

• If you get bored easily, it’s okay, you can learn ways to stay focused.

• If you don’t have time, make it. It really is that simple. Even if it’s just 15 minutes.

• If you needed a reminder to get in the word today, here it is 😊
