Why Memorizing Scripture Is Powerful with Natalie Abbott

Why is memorizing Scripture so powerful? This week's podcast episode will inspire you as you hear the story of how God's word helped Dwell Differently CEO Vera Schmitz, a former professional pole vaulter, overcome mental health challenges after retiring from her athletic career. Not only did God transform Vera's spirit, but he also sparked an idea for a new business that would help others in their faith journey.    "Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads." (Deuteronomy 11:18 NIV).    About four years ago, Natalie Abbott and her sister Vera Schmitz started a business on a mission called Dwell Differently. Dwell helps people fix God's words in their hearts and minds, primarily through scripture verse temporary tattoos. Natalie writes the weekly devotional, hosts the Dwell Differently podcast, and co-leads the Dwell team with Vera. Every month they memorize and focus on one Bible verse together. (Listen to Lindsay May's episodes on the Dwell Differently podcast: Episode 105, 106, and 107).   In this episode, listen to Natalie share how God directed her gifts and abilities to help bring Dwell to life. She believes that Jesus loves all people and wants them to know him and experience health and freedom and beautiful transformation in their lives.   Key quote: "The gospel is common ground for everyone."   Connect with Dwell: Website: dwelldifferently.com Instagram: @dwelldifferently Facebook: @dwelldifferently    If you enjoy this content, be sure to subscribe and leave a review.
