Join Stasi and Karen Christakis on today’s podcast for an inspiring conversation on the beauty and the power of the Bible. A deep lover of scripture, Karen shares how she doesn’t just read it; she lets it “read her.” Through her years of digging into His Word, God has used it to enlighten her to both Jesus’ heart and her own. Studying the Bible has been a doorway to growth, stretching, healing, experiencing God’s goodness, and deepening her love of our King. The Word of God is alive and active, and we are all invited to drink regularly from this Deep Well. Listen in and be encouraged to dive in yourself! ….. SHOW NOTES: ….. VERSES:  Matthew 7:24 (NIV) — Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.  James 1:23–24 (NIV) —  Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. Genesis 19 — Story of Lot and his daughters 1 Corinthians 13:4 (NIV) — Love is patient, love is kind. … Genesis 4:6–7 (NIV) — Then the Lord said to Cain, “Why are you angry? Why is your face downcast? If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must rule over it.” Genesis 21 (NIV) — Story of Hagar in the desert 2 Timothy 3:16-17 (NIV) — All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God[a] may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. Genesis 18 (here, 18:22–26) (NIV) — The men turned away and went toward Sodom, but Abraham remained standing before the Lord. Then Abraham approached him and said: “Will you sweep away the righteous with the wicked? What if there are fifty righteous people in the city? Will you really sweep it away and not spare[c] the place for the sake of the fifty righteous people in it? Far be it from you to do such a thing—to kill the righteous with the wicked, treating the righteous and the wicked alike. Far be it from you! Will not the Judge of all the earth do right?” The Lord said, “If I find fifty righteous people in the city of Sodom, I will spare the whole place for their sake.” …..
