Why Reading the Bible Still Matters

On Tuesday’s show, we had an honest conversation about something so many believers quietly struggle with: What do you do when reading the Bible feels dry… distant… or even dull?

We talked about why God chose story—not just statements—to shape hearts. Scripture isn’t just information; it’s transformation. It’s not a checklist to complete but an invitation into relationship. Romans 15:4 reminds us that everything written in earlier times was written to give us endurance and hope. That means every page has purpose—even the ones we don’t fully understand yet.

We also reminded listeners that the Bible is not about perfect people—it’s about a perfect God. When we read through the lens of His character, everything changes. The same God who moved in David’s repentance, Joseph’s waiting, and Ruth’s loss is still moving today.

One of the most powerful parts of the show was this truth: God’s Word works beneath the surface—even when we don’t feel it. It is formative, not transactional. Just because it feels quiet doesn’t mean it isn’t powerful. Isaiah 55 promises that His Word will not return void. Seeds planted in faith will produce fruit in time.

If you’ve felt stuck in your Bible reading, this episode will encourage you to start small, stay steady, and trust the process. One verse read prayerfully can reshape a heart. God meets us in His Word—and He never wastes a moment we spend with Him.
