About this episode
What am I looking for when reading the Bible? Daily Bible reading schedules go off the rails. What is the value in reading Leviticus? How do I know what to look for in Isaiah? What are the most important questions to be asking when I read 2 Corinthians?
In this lesson, I argue that all of the Bible points to Jesus Christ. Find joy and passion in reading every text of Scripture through this lens: what can it tell me about the message about Christ?
The sermon today is titled "Studying the Bible to Know Jesus." The Scripture reading is from 2 Timothy 2:15 & 3:12-4:2. Originally preached at the West Side Church of Christ (Searcy, AR) on November 13, 2022. All lessons fit under one of 5 broad categories: Begin, Discover, Grow, Learn, and Serve. This sermon is filed under Learn: Christian Scripture.
