How to Make Bible Reading More than a Checklist

When life gets busy and schedules get chaotic, does Bible reading sometimes feel like another thing you’ve got to get done? It’s really easy for reading the Bible to just become part of a checklist, but when we’re rushing to “get it done and checked off the list,” we’re not really creating moments for God’s Word to speak to our hearts and go deep in our lives.

Michael Gunnin from Walk Thru the Bible gives us 4 questions to ask ourselves to create moments of application for God’s Word to sink into our hearts and lives. We’re not talking about in-depth Bible study here, but how to move from getting our daily reading done to having it make an impact in our lives.
