Summary

This is the second episode in our Mistakes We've Made in Bible Study series and we're talking about the mistake of reading with our heart and not our head. What do we mean by reading with our heart and not our head? We mean that we decide what Scripture means by feeling only and not by fact. While our hearts should absolutely be engaged in Bible reading, when we read with only our hearts and not our heads, we run the risk of an incomplete or incorrect interpretation. And that can lead us to misunderstand who God is and how He relates to His people.   So… learn from our mistake! Come listen to this episode and let us teach you how we’ve learned to read with both our heart and our head.   Sign up for the Daily Grace Podcast Newsletter and receive the free resource "Scripture for Every Season.”   Time Stamps: 1:01 - Favorite Things 2:12 - What does it mean to read with our heart and not our head? 6:42 - What happens if we only read the Bible with our heart 9:50 - Reading with your head AND your heart 13:08 - Don't miss out on God's story by making the Bible about yourself 13:55 - How to get started reading the Bible with your head and your heart   Favorite Things: Adidas CloudFoam Shoes Kirkland Banana Chocolate Protein Drinks   Resources mentioned in this episode:  Quiet Time Tips Podcast Series Beyond the Basics Workshop   Connect with us: Subscribe to Daily Grace: on iOS, go to our Apple podcast page and click subscribe.  On Android, click this podcast RSS feed link and choose your podcast app.  If needed, you can copy this link directly into your favorite podcast app (like Stitcher or Overcast).

Welcome to Daily Grace. We believe the Bible is true, trustworthy, and timeless. And we want

0:17.6

to help women like you, know and love God's Word. The Bible shows us who God is and who

0:24.7

He is, changes everything. My name is Shelby and I'm Crystal. And we want to invite you to come

0:31.2

join us as we chat about the truth of God's Word in our everyday lives. Hey everybody, welcome

0:37.1

back to the Daily Grace podcast. This is Shelby and as you know, we are in our summer series,

0:42.4

Mistakes We've Made in Bible Study. Last week was our first episode in this series and we talked

0:47.3

about a mistake that both Crystal and I have made, which is quitting before we even get started

0:51.3

with Deep Bible study. And this week we're excited to talk about another mistake that we've made

0:55.8

before, which is reading with our heart and not our head when we read scripture. But first we

1:06.4

doing favorite things in 15 seconds or less. So Crystal, hold on, I got to get the timer ready.

1:14.2

I'm not kidding. I'm going to cut you off at 15 seconds. Are you ready?

1:20.9

My favorite thing this week are my Adidas Cloud Foam Shoes. Cloud Foam. Yes, they are super comfy.

1:27.7

They go with everything because they're white and I have worn them a lot and those are my favorite things.

1:34.3

That was perfect. That was 14.38 seconds. You did so good. Okay, are you ready? 15 seconds? Let me get my

1:42.4

one. I'm so ready. Okay. And go. My favorite thing this week is the Kirkland brand banana chocolate protein

1:52.4

drinks. I get them at Costco and they're dairy free and they're so yummy and I can drink one in

1:58.4

the morning for breakfast and it's like protein, but also kind of healthy-ish. That was perfect.

2:05.6

My time is up as soon as you finished. All right, this week's episode is about a mistake that

2:10.6

no a lot of us have made and it is reading the Bible with our hearts and not our heads. So

2:16.7

scripture calls us, love God with our heart, soul, mind and strength. So essentially our entire
