Biblical meditation can foster a closer relationship with God and a better understanding of His word. This week one of our contributors shares her personal experiences with meditation.
The Bible is clear: Meditation is an important tool for knowing the mind of God. This week we jump into a 21-day biblical meditation challenge and discuss how biblical meditation differs from Eastern or secular meditation.
The Songs of Ascent aren't peppy, shallow songs disconnected from reality; they are often determined, realistic, and occasionally dark. This week we discuss the choices we can make to rejoice, even in the dark places.
The ancient Songs of Ascent speak to timeless themes that resonate through the ages. They provide a beautiful preparation for your journey to the Feast of Tabernacles.
Lindsey admits she’s struggled in the past to connect with the Psalms–but her recent deep dive into the structure and purpose of the Psalms of Ascent has her nerding out over God’s design for these special songs of pilgrimage.
This week we discuss a key practice of Bible study—one of exegesis (getting understanding out of scripture) rather than eisegesis (inserting meaning into scripture).
How can we listen to God and become truly attuned with Him when our lives are so loud and distracting? This week we examine five ways to hear His voice better.
In part one of our Unexpected Meanings series, we examine the biblical concept of a “helper” to determine whether the societal connotations associated with this term are bibical, or if God intended a helper to be so much more.
