The Scripture Practice - Session 01: Read
This session is from the Scripture Practice made by Practicing the Way. The way the digital age has rewired our brains is at odds with how Scripture was designed to be read. In the age of skimming and scrolling, how do we read Scripture in such a way that we meet God and become like him? Session 01 explores how to approach Scripture with a heart posture that recognizes Jesus’ presence with us as we read and is aimed at surrendering to his wisdom.
Key Scripture: Psalm 119:105
