Scripture. It’s God’s love letter to us. It’s how He speaks to us. It’s our guide for right living. It’s so much more! And we’re supposed to know it. Psalm 119:11 says, “I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you.” When we know God’s Word, and can recall it at a moment, we are better prepared to live in a way that glorifies Him. In this episode, hear three tips to help you keep scripture at the tip of your tongue.

Love is in the air. You’ve probably seen in at every store you’ve been in over the past month. But God doesn’t look at love like we do. While it can be sweet, there is no chocolate, or flowers. God’s love is more about how we treat one another. Let’s dig into how we all should love one another, through one of the most famous verses in the Bible.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 1 Corinthians 13:4-5

We’re in a battle. Every single day. It’s not like any war you’ve seen in the movies. Because we can’t see the enemy. And the battle is for your soul. God has equipped us with everything we need to fight…and to win. Scripture tells us the Bible is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword. That’s from Hebrews 4. Today, we’ll hear from a woman who has put that weapon to the test. It’s Ellie Holcomb. She’s a musician, and a mom of three kids: ages 9, 6 and 3. It’s a busy season.

In the Beginning. When you think of Creation, who do you picture there? Probably God, the Father. And it’s true. He is the Creator. But He wasn’t the only one present. If we dig a little into scripture, we’ll discover the entire Trinity was present, as it always been, and always will be.
