In this episode, Alasdair Groves talks with Mike Emlet about how he personally engages with Scripture. How does he understand reading individually for devotions versus reading devotionally as a community? How can church liturgies help inform our Bible reading? How does he read through 1 Thessalonians and the Psalms? What do you do when the Bible isn’t grabbing your heart?
