Our Mission is Simple...
That one heart would come to know or grow in Christ.
Two guys that love the bible, having fun and going off script invite you into their bible study they have been doing together for over 10 years! Instead of reading a whole chapter at a time, they bite off a small piece of scripture that they can dive into for around 30 minutes or less. Using their innate curiosity and the help of their Life Application bible footnotes, their bible study is refreshing and fun! They are not bible scholars by any means but just two regular, everyday guys who turned their bible study from an obligation or Christian duty into a fun time that they look forward to and actually grow closer to God during! Their hope is that it will provide you with a refreshing way to get into God’s word, help you see how using the Life Application bible can help you gain further insight into the scriptures and maybe prompt you to find a friend or two that you can do a similar style of bible study on your own! Our tempo in each episode is to: * Open with prayer * Read a small bite of scripture * See if there are any verses that pop out to us or we have any inspired insight on. * Read the Life Application footnotes for the scripture that was read and discuss what was shared and/or any ”ah ha” moments! * Close in prayer. Give us a listen and we guarantee you will have some fun with us (or at least be able to poke some fun at us)! Be great and enjoy the gift of today! :) Proverbs 27:17 Shout out to Dmitrii Kolesnikov providing rights to the intro/exit music at https://pixabay.com/users/the_mountain-3616498/

We use to study the bible out of obligation or "Christian duty" but then we found out that getting together with a friend, going with the flow on how much scripture you read, getting insights from those much smarter about scripture (from a Life Application bible) and just having some curiosity and open, honest conversation was the formula of turning our "duty" into something we not only enjoyed but looked forward to doing! Listen in on one of our studies together and see if this style of studying the bible inspires you to have fun studying the scriptures and helps you grow closer to God! :)
