To stimulate your spiritual growth this year, consider the following questions: What does this mean: “We touch the outside of the Bible, but seldom the inside?” How does your soul relate to this quote from Deuteronomy 8:3: “ Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God?” Why is it that most Christians don’t seem to know if they are hearing God’s voice or their own?
