Discovering God through Scripture
Lead Videographer
Description
Whitney and Scott are joined by Jackie Davenport, one of our members and leaders from the Pelham campus. We asked her what God has been teaching her recently and she shares how a trip to New Zealand represents her approach to Scripture, how she’s rejecting an action figure version of God, and how Scripture memorization can combat the root of her sin patterns.
Key Points
- Reading the Bible has so much more depth when we learn to discover the themes embedded throughout its entire narrative.
- It can be easy to feel God’s nearness to us, but without appreciating his transcendance, we can make him small enough to suit our preferences.
- Memorizing Scripture that speaks truth into our core beliefs about God opposes the lies that our sin gets rooted in.
