E97 Word before the world

Elizabeth and her husband used to wake up, reach for their phones, and swallow the world before they had taken one bite of God's Word. Then they encountered a teaching from Rick Renner that stopped them cold: Do not eat until you have read the Word. This is what they had been doing for the last year, and it was confirmation of their conviction. In this episode of Lion Roars from Zion, Elizabeth gets raw and real. She shares the morning routine — the non-negotiable first hour where she and her husband meet Jesus together before they meet the day.
