 Episode notes 
John 1:1 Sparked Personal Revelation
- Emy shares that her first clear revelation was John 1:1, which helped her see Jesus as the living Word.
- That moment sparked a lasting hunger to read and understand scripture personally.
Begin Bible Study With Prayer
- Pray before you read the Bible to invite God into the conversation and remove your agenda.
- Ask God to loosen your understanding and reveal scripture, not to confirm your opinions.
Make Prayer A Two-Way Conversation
- Treat prayer as a dialogue, not a monologue, and make space for God to speak.
- Give the Holy Spirit room to respond during your Bible study time.
