About this episode
Have you ever read the Bible, closed it, and walked away completely unchanged? You read the words. You nodded along. Maybe you even highlighted something. But by Tuesday, nothing was different.If that is honest for you, you are not alone. And it is exactly what this message addresses.This sermon makes a bold claim that cuts to the heart of how most people approach Scripture: we do not interpret Scripture through our experience. We interpret our experience through Scripture. That one shift, from the inside out rather than the outside in, changes everything about how the Bible functions in your life.From understanding why genre matters when reading the Bible, to knowing the difference between a word-for-word translation and a paraphrase, to the moment pain quietly starts rewriting your theology, this message is a practical and honest guide to engaging Scripture well, not just more.The Bereans did not just hear the Word. They searched it. Daily. And that habit built something in them that no amount of emotion or tradition could shake.In this episode:Why the Bible is a library, not a manual, and why misreading its genres creates wounded believersThe three types of Bible translations, what each one is good for, and which to use for serious studyHow experience and tradition quietly creep above Scripture without you noticingWhy pain that goes unanswered does not get to rewrite who God isThe SOAP method: a simple, practical way to move from reading the Word to doing itDon't just know the Word. Don't just feel the Word. Do the Word.www.c3churchnairobi.com
