14. How to Actually Read the Bible (and Understand It) as a Busy Mom

Do you want to read the Bible consistently — but feel confused, rushed, or disconnected every time you try?In this episode, I’m sharing the simple method that helped me go from avoiding the actual Bible to reading it every day and actually understanding it — even in the middle of busy mom life.You’ll hear how a moment in the book of Job showed me why context matters, how I use a Bible reading plan to stay consistent, and the practical process I now use to study Scripture in about 15 minutes a day without overwhelm or guilt.After reading a passage, I use this prompt to help me understand and apply Scripture in plain language:“Act as my biblical scholar, but explain this in simple language that sounds like me.Walk me through the historical and cultural context of this passage, what’s happening in the story, what this teaches us about God and about us, and give me practical application points.Reference credible biblical commentaries and tools like Enduring Word and Strong’s Concordance.Summarize it in a clear, easy-to-read format.”You can use this for a full chapter or just a few verses.📖 Bible in a Year Reading Planhttps://www.proclaim365.com/biblein365🌿 R.E.S.T. & Reset Guide (Free)A 5-minute reset to calm your mind and reconnect with God in the chaos of motherhoodhttps://theunstuckchristianmom.myflodesk.com/restandresetfreebie🤍 Free Mom Connection Call (This Month)Real conversation, encouragement, and sisterhood for momshttps://theunstuckchristianmom.myflodesk.com/w3w543eelpConnect with me on IG!
