Reflection Sunday

As we look back over these past four weeks of the Scripture Practice, I believe we can all see how our appreciation for God’s Word has grown. There is a reason the Bible remains the best-selling book of all time and is found in nearly 78% of American households.

Memorize

The Scripture Practice is the slow, prayerful, contemplative reading of Scripture with the goal of formation, not only information. This week, we focus on storing the truth of Scripture deep within our hearts, minds, and even our bodies. Memorizing Scripture is far more valuable than the speed.

Study

The Scripture Practice is the slow, prayerful, contemplative reading of Scripture with the goal of formation, not only information. This week, our focus is not only on knowing Scripture but on understanding it deeply and applying it to the kind of people we are becoming in Christ.

To follow Him is to immerse ourselves in the words that reveal His heart, His mission, and His way.
