Head vs. Heart Knowledge

from Before the Lord · host Blake S. Crawford

We can spend years learning about God and still not know Him. In this episode, Blake gets honest about the season he chased Bible knowledge just so he wouldn’t feel stupid around more mature believers — and the shift that finally brought his time in the Word to life.Anchored in 1 Corinthians 8:1 — “knowledge puffs up, but love builds up” — this devotional traces the move from head knowledge to heart knowledge: from knowing about God to actually experiencing Him. Drawing on Jeremiah 9 and Ephesians 1, Blake shows why that shift is the Spirit’s work, not ours — and how to come to Scripture longing to meet God rather than just collect facts.Follow Before the Lord on Facebook (@BeforeTheLord) and Instagram (@beforethelorddevo).
