Session 3: The Bible You Can Trust

Theme: Confidence in Scripture as a spiritual and evangelistic tool**

Tied to: Matthew 5 + Isaiah 58

Focus: Scripture shapes us—and speaks powerfully to others

• Devotional: Jesus didn’t just read Scripture—he trusted it. And Isaiah calls out those who read but don’t live it. In a skeptical culture, we need to both delight in the Word and know why we trust it.

• Group Discussion:

• What questions or doubts about the Bible have you carried?

• How does your Scripture rhythm (or lack of one) shape your week?

• What would help you trust the Bible more deeply?

• Shared Practice: Watch a short apologetics video (e.g., Wes Huff) together and discuss. Choose one passage (e.g. Ps 1 or 2 Tim 3:16–17) to memorize as a group.

• Individual Practice: Daily quiet time this week—try SOAP or Lectio with Luke 24 or a Psalm. Reflect: “What does this reveal about Jesus?”
