Why Bible Knowledge Doesn't Change Us | Ep 56

from Soil and Roots · host Brian Fisher

Why do Christians have access to more biblical teaching than ever before yet often feel spiritually stuck?In this episode, Brian Fisher continues exploring instruction as the fifth key element of formation by examining a troubling paradox. Modern believers have unprecedented access to sermons, podcasts, books, Bible studies, and theological resources, yet many still struggle to experience the deep transformation promised by the Christian life.Drawing on The Critical Journey, The Trellis and the Vine, Dallas Willard, Randy Alcorn, and others, Brian argues that information alone cannot form a disciple. He explores why most Christian instruction lacks a progressive formative pathway, how our expectations shape discipleship, and why the church often prioritizes participation over transformation.The conversation challenges listeners to reconsider the purpose of Christian instruction and invites them to pursue a deeper vision of spiritual formation centered on becoming more like Jesus.Join us online! Web: ⁠⁠soilandroots.org⁠⁠ Substack: ⁠ https://soilandroots.substack.com/
