What is your relationship with the Bible like? Do you struggle to read and delight in it? Does it seem like an outdated book of rules and guidelines for life? If so, it may be partly due to a misunderstanding of exactly what the Bible is: God's very word to us. My guest this week, Keri Folmar, spent years neglecting God's Word, because she had misconceptions about its purpose. Now, her life and relationship with God have been completely transformed by spending regular time reading it, studying it, and meditating on it. In this episode, Keri will remind us that we were created to know God and that the Bible is the place where he speaks and reveals himself to us. She'll share six practical tips for how to begin delighting in God's Word as well as how to help our children understand the treasure that God's Word is. I especially loved Keri's encouragement to moms to not only teach Bible stories to their children, but to also teach them about the Bible itself and how to use it in their own lives.
Keri Folmar is a member of the United Christian Church of Dubai, where her husband has been the senior pastor for the last fifteen years. She has three children and is the author of The Good Portion: The Doctrine of Scripture for Every Woman and the Delighting in the Word Bible study series.
