Have you been putting off Bible study because you feel unsure where to begin? You don’t need perfect understanding before you open God’s Word. In this episode, we turn to Ephesians 1:17–18 and James 1:5 to talk about praying for wisdom, slowing down, and reading Scripture without forcing our own assumptions into it. We’ll also look at how distractions, pride, and isolation can keep us from engaging with the Bible. You’ll leave with a simple plan: choose a manageable passage, read it in context, pray for understanding, and write down one honest question or next step. Open your Bible and begin.
