If you’ve ever opened the Bible, felt overwhelmed, and quietly thought, “I have no idea what I’m doing,” this episode is for you. In part four of our “Can I Trust the Bible?” series, we get super practical about how to read Scripture without treating it like a Magic 8 Ball or a good-luck charm. 

We walk through a simple framework—Observation, Interpretation, Application—talk about why context and genre matter, and highlight accessible tools like modern translations, study Bibles, reading plans, and helpful apps and videos. Listen in and discover how everyday people (not just scholars) can understand the Bible and let God’s Word shine light on both where you are and where you’re headed.

We spend our days sorting real messages from scams—but what do we do with a book many people now label “too fantastical to be true”? In week three of Can I Trust the Bible? we take a closer look at how evidence works: legal burdens of proof, forensic investigation, historical method, and archaeological discoveries that intersect with the world of Scripture.

Rather than asking you to simply “have more faith,” this episode invites you to honestly weigh people, places, circumstances, and motives from the biblical story—and to move from secondhand opinions about the Bible to your own firsthand exploration.

This conversation invites both skeptics and committed believers to take an honest look at the Bible’s relevance today. We start with a modern hook—“Would you follow Jesus on social?”—then trace why the Bible’s story begins with Jesus, how eyewitness testimony shaped the New Testament, and what Christians mean by words like “inspired,” “inerrant,” and “authoritative.” You’ll hear practical encouragement to trade a secondhand faith for a firsthand encounter with Scripture and a simple plan to begin this week—no overwhelm required.

Today’s conversation explores why faith flourishes in committed relationships, not just in rows on Sunday. Learn how consistent circles help you practice Jesus’ words, notice drift before it’s too late, and build the kind of safety that changes lives. Key texts: Matthew 7:24–27; James 1:22–25. 

Highlights

• “Circles are better than rows” for growth and care
• Why knowledge alone isn’t the goal—obedience is
• What makes a great group: show up, join in, be real (ABC)

Reflection Questions

1. Where are you “hearing” but not yet “doing”?
2. Who notices when you start to drift?
3. What’s one step you can take this week to build consistent community?

Reflection questions:

1. Where are you low on peace right now?
2. What could you remove or pause to be still this week?
3. What would it look like to open your hands to God—just for today?

You’ll hear why we “don’t confuse God’s silence with His absence,” and four responses that shape a resilient faith: flee temptation, work hard, speak truth (not self-promotion), and forgive. Scriptures include Genesis 39–41; 50:20 and Hebrews 12:1–2.
