EP 04: Start Small, Stay Faithful: Creating a Habit of Bible Reading

from Growing Through Motherhood — Christian Mom Podcast, Faith-Based Parenting, Grace-Filled Motherhood · host Kelsie Shelaine-

As the New Year approaches and resolutions are everywhere, I’m celebrating something far more meaningful—365 days in the Bible. In this episode, we talk about why reading God’s Word, even in the smallest capacity, is one of the best places to start. Whether that’s the verse of the day, a short Bible plan, or eventually reading through the Bible in a year—faithfulness over perfection is the goal. You’ll hear why being in the Word changes everything, how we hear God more clearly when we know Him intimately, and why starting in Genesis 1 can actually feel overwhelming if you don’t yet understand the bigger picture of Scripture. Instead, we talk about starting in the Gospels, building consistency, and letting the habit grow naturally. We also break down three simple steps to help you start (or restart) your Bible reading habit: Make it simple Set your goal Start with the Gospels or a short Bible plan If you’ve ever wanted to be more consistent but didn’t know where to begin, this episode is for you.   Resources Mentioned in This Episode 📱 Grab the YouVersion Bible App Search “YouVersion Bible App” in your app store 📖 Prayers That Avail Much 🎧 Servant’s Heart Episode-Your Next Listen How Matthew 23 showed me Beauty in Motherhood 📘 The Bible Recap-Book Version.
