It’s common to start a new year brimming with motivation to read the Bible, only to have that motivation quickly evaporate as the stress and busyness of normal life return. In this episode, a very special guest (the apostle Peter!) joins Mike and Matthew to give us four motivations that will keep us paying careful attention to God’s Word all year. We need to see the Bible against (1) the darkness, (2) the dawn, (3) man-made myths, and against (4) the backdrop of personal encounter with God.

Scriptures Referenced: 2Pet 1:16-21; Psa 119:105; 1Cor 13:12; 2Cor 4:6

The imagination gets a bad rap sometimes in the church. As if it’s something to be treated with suspicion. But the truth is that the imagination is a God-given faculty that is crucial in the realms of daily life, science, and faithful Bible reading. In this episode we hear a biblical defense of using our imagination, and Mike and Matthew demonstrate how it enriches our time in God’s Word when we use it to that end. Watching The Chosen is not the only way for the Bible to come alive!

Scriptures Referenced: Exo 13:8; Col 3:2; 2Cor 4:18; Joh 1:35-42; Psa 113; Dan 1
