I Read the Bible and Feel Nothing — What Should I Do? // Ask Pastor John

When you don’t feel affections for God while reading your Bible, Pastor John counsels that you apply your heart.

We close the week with a very commonly asked question on the minds of many Christians. It’s a question you, Pastor John, are asked a lot on the road, and it’s one of the most common questions we get from our listener emails. Here it is: If I read my Bible, but I don’t feel anything in my affections that resonates with the worth, the value, the preciousness, the beauty, the pleasures of what those words are supposed to communicate, is there anything I can do next? Or do I just have to wait and let the experience happen to me in the future? How do you answer?
