About this episode

Hey hey sister! Welcome back to the podcast! In this episode I'm joined by Beth, a youth pastor for over 25 years, to talk about why we should read the Bible on our own, and how to do so! We as Christians need to go back to Scripture, not just for what we want, but for what God wants us to learn. Praying you're challenged to dig deeper, and encouraged to read more!


Scripture used:

John 3:16

2 Timothy 3:16-17

Psalm 119:11

Hebrews 4:12

Ephesians 4:17

Luke 6:45

James 1:21-22


We talk about THIS resource that Beth and I put together for you; it's a Google Doc, so if you need it in a different format, shoot me an email at thechristiangirlstea@gmail.com or DM me on Instagram @thechristiangirlstea.


Thank you so much for joining us!


See you soon:)
