I Was Biblically Illiterate—Here’s How I Learned to Understand Scripture | Daily Bread

Do you want to understand the Bible but feel as though you are reading a foreign language? You are not alone.In this episode of Daily Bread, The Mandated Reporter shares how she went from Biblically illiterate and unable to understand the King James Version to reading, understanding, and teaching Scripture through Holy Spirit.Instead of giving up, she found a Bible she could understand, completed devotionals, answered comprehension questions, and grew one step at a time. She was asked to teach children’s ministry even though she felt unqualified. With no formal Bible-study method, she prayed and asked Holy Spirit to teach her. He led her through Scripture, connected the lessons, and showed her how to explain the Word to children.That dependence helped her create lessons, write books, teach others, and establish an online private school.This testimony is for beginners, parents, and new Bible readers who do not know where to begin. There is no shame in using a Bible translation or study resource you understand.Keep reading. Keep asking questions. Keep seeking wisdom. Ask Holy Spirit to help you understand and apply Scripture.Listen to Daily Bread on Spotify, Amazon Music, Apple Podcasts, and MunchkinMerch.com/podcast.Learn. Heal.
