This Week's Teaching: "Please read the scriptures for yourself."

Wow. I recently heard this story and was so encouraged! So inspired. And so invigorated about this ongoing emphasis that we need to be in the scriptures! This is why we do what we do!!! 

I hope I've done the story justice. It's powerful. Especially the punchline. So cool. Be encouraged. If you're not reading the scriptures for yourself, just start. Set aside a time today and start reading the scriptures for yourself. I pray that God meets you there. I believe he will.

Here's the scripture I reference in the above teaching: "The Holy Scriptures...are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God a may be thoroughly equipped for every good work." (1 Timothy 3:15-17)
​
​Amen!
