How to Read the Bible | Session 5: Why It Matters & How to Apply It 📖 Why does reading the Bible matter? How do we move from understanding a passage to applying it in our lives? In Session 5 of How to Read the Bible, Pastor Steven Hiller explores the importance of theological principles and application in Bible study. In This Session, We Cover: ✅ The Mission of The Journey – Discovering the truth, goodness, and beauty of the Christian Story. ✅ The Interpretive Journey – Moving from meaning to theology to application. ✅ Why meaning matters – Understanding what the original author intended. ✅ Theological principles – How timeless truths shape our worldview. ✅ Practical theology – Applying Scripture to real-life situations. ✅ Philippians 4:13 as a case study – What does it actually mean? 🔍 Key Takeaways: Meaning matters – The Bible wasn’t written to us, but it was written for us. Theological principles help us see how Scripture shapes our beliefs. Practical theology is living in light of those beliefs. 🛠 Want to go deeper?
