Key Takeaways:
Memorizing scripture is less about retention of words and more about the transformation it brings to one's heart and actions.
Engaging with scripture should lead to a life inspired by Jesus' teachings, beyond academic or intellectual pursuits.
The Pharisees knew the scriptures but lacked alignment with God's heart, underscoring the need for a true connection with God through His word.
The core purpose of scripture memorization is to mediate on its teachings and allow the Holy Spirit to guide us in daily life.
True spiritual growth occurs when the words of Jesus are put into practice, akin to building a house on a solid rock.

Notable Quotes:
"Ironically, when my friend asked the Welsh champion of scripture memorization what church he went to, the man said he wasn't even a Christian."
"You can know a book, but not the person who inspired it."
"We build our lives not by knowing his words, but by doing them."
"It's good to memorize scripture, but it's far better to do what they say."
"Ask the Holy Spirit to remind you of God's words in those moments when you can put them into practice."

The God of the Bible is a talking God. All throughout the Scriptures, God is seen talking to people. First to the prophets, then most fully in Jesus and today through his Holy Spirit. When we choose to follow Jesus, the Spirit speaks to remind us of all that Jesus established and apply it to our lives.

So how does the Spirit speak? How do we know it’s God? And what happens afterwards? Join Rev Dr Tania Harris as she explores what the Spirit is saying to us. Everyday God Conversations will encourage you weekly to reflect on the God-conversations of Scripture, the ultimate God-conversation in Jesus and to hear from the Holy Spirit yourself. Remember, it was never meant to be a one-way conversation!
