Recently I’ve been doing a Bible read through with some people from my church. My goal, as always, is to help people know the Bible better so they can know and love God more.
One question comes from the story of Abraham and Isaac in Genesis 22. It’s clear in Scripture that sacrificing children is definitely a no-no. So how can God command Abraham to do what he hates?

Next Episode
In the next episode of the Core Life Training Podcast I’ll share a new guide I’ve written called Next Level Bible reading. When I became a believer someone gave me a Bible and I found out right away that I should be reading it. So I did. But I was never really sure what I was supposed to be getting out of it. I was committed so I kept trying. But I always had a sense that I could be, that I should be getting more out of my Bible study. Maybe you want more out of what you read too but aren’t sure what to do.
There are four roadblocks that keep us from getting more out of what we read in Scripture. I’ll share them with you in the next episode and get you my guide called Next Level Bible reading. I want to help you level up your Bible study and get more out of what you read.
