Hi, this is Justin. Today on Theocast, we are going to talk about Bible reading. Maybe you're

discouraged about reading your Bible. Maybe you feel like you don't understand it, or maybe you feel

like when you do read it, you get nothing from it. We are going to talk today about how not to

approach reading scripture. And then we're going to consider what the Bible says about how

to interact with the Word of God. And then over in the members area, we are going to consider whether

or not Bible reading, personal Bible reading, is a litmus test of being a good and faithful Christian.

Stay tuned.

Hey, guys. There's a quick reminder if you'd like to join Theocast and helping

other people find rest in Christ. A simple way of doing that is simply by leaving us a review on

iTunes or your favorite podcast app. You can also leave reviews on all of our books. They're

available at Amazon.com. And if you haven't started following us on Twitter, Instagram, or

Facebook yet,

that's a great way to take our content and then share it with your friends and family.

To learn more about how to support Theocast, simply visit Theocast, encouraging weary pilgrims to rest in Christ.

Conversations about the Christian life from a reform perspective.

Our hosts today are John Moffitt, pastor of Grace Reformed Church in Spring Hill, Tennessee,

Jimmy Bueller, pastor of Christ Community Church in Wilmer, Minnesota, and myself, Justin Purdue,

pastor of Covenant Baptist Church in Asheville, North Carolina.

Guys, it's good to be recording with you again today, though there is at least a, I don't know,

hint of sadness for me that we're not doing it actually physically in the same room.

Got spoiled last week being with you guys to record not just a regular podcast,

but also some fun content on Covenant Theology that may already be available by the time
