Summary

From Olive Tree to Obedience: Daily Bible Study, Devotional In this heartfelt special episode, Rachael shares the story behind Bible Study Live—a dream five years in the making. From her first trip to Rome, where Scripture came alive in powerful, unexpected ways, to a sacred encounter in an olive grove that planted the seeds for this retreat, Rachael invites listeners into the journey of obedience, transformation, and bold faith. Discover why this fall’s small-group trip to Rome is more than a Bible study—it’s a chance to walk the same streets as early believers, study the Word in the places it was lived out, and experience God in unforgettable ways.

And, you know, we look back at that time now and we just laugh because we're like, well, what is there to do in Rome? We'll go see the Coliseum, but then what?
