Dwell Differently
If you were our friend, and if we could look you in the eyes and see your struggles and know you fully, and if we could only give you ONE thing—we'd give you God’s Word. There is more power and love and truth in one verse than in a thousand other words. So, let us help you memorize God's words in a simple, easy way. We hope you'll love listening in while we chat about what our verse means, why it matters, and how it intersects with our daily lives.

Let God’s Word Be the Thing That Remains // Courtney Doctor
“The words that we speak simply are revealing what’s already there—they’re not making it, they’re not creating it, they’re just the thing that spills over.” — Courtney Doctor
Join Natalie Abbott and Courtney Doctor as they discuss how what we say reveals what’s going on inside us, how seeing the ugliness within us come out can sometimes be a gift, and how Jesus enables us to be people with transformed hearts and good that spills out. God himself is our ultimate good and the one who bears good fruit in us, and we know him through his Word. Let’s be people who let God’s Word be the thing that remains.
This month's memory verse: "A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart." — Luke 6:45a
