Reset Your Devotion: Transformation Through God's Word

Are you spiritually nourished—or just getting by? Building from Acts 2:38–47, I share why the early church’s rhythm of devotion wasn’t optional; it was the engine of growth, unity, and mission. We explore Jesus’ call to feed on God’s Word (Matthew 4:4) and what it means to “live from the overflow,” where our words naturally reflect what fills our hearts (Matthew 12:34). You’ll hear a practical, grace-filled plan for moving from information to transformation, including a simple reading path you can start this week.

In this episode:

• Why salvation launches a lifestyle, not a checkbox (Acts 2:38–39).

• “They devoted themselves…”—the four habits of Acts 2:42–47.

• Living in the overflow vs. spiritual starvation (Matthew 4:4; 12:34).

• The “Power of Four”: how engaging Scripture 4+ days a week reshapes witness, discipleship, and everyday choices.

• A scalable plan for every stage—one chapter, four days a week to start; or three chapters a day to finish the NT in <3 months.

 

Take the next step this week:

1. Put time with God on your calendar.

2. Read one chapter, four days this week.

3. Note a question, then keep reading—let Scripture interpret Scripture.
