What have you been reading recently? Anything that has better equipped you are helped you on your faith journey? Any books or authors you would like to share with us?

Just curious which Bible version you’re currently using and why? Have you stuck with one for decades a prefer it for your familiarity with it? Is it because it’s the official one for your church/pastor? One you use for ease of reading?

I have most major translations, but I still generally reach for my 1995NASB. When using the logos app I do use the LEB quite often. For teaching kids Sunday school or VBS I usually grab my NLT.

The End Times! Sure it can be a bit much some times, but what is your general take on Echatology and Revelation in general? Are you premil, postmil, amil? Believe in a rapture or simply the visible return of Christ and the resurrection of the dead? How do you read Revelation (or do you generally skip it)?

What does your regular Bible reading or Bible studying look like? Do you have a regular reading plan? Do you pick a book and work through it verse by verse? Do you read multiple books at once? Do you try to rely mostly on the text, or do you use commentaries or devotionals?

I personally try to read through a book at a time. I like to use other resources to dig in and understand the history, culture, original audience, etc.

I'm curious, how are Spiritual Disciplines look at/ talked about in your church? Does your church address spiritual disciplines? Which disciplines are recognized by your church and how are they encouraged? How do you see your church helping you grow in spiritual disciplines?

Those of you who have made a move from one denomination to another, what did that process look like for you? How different were the denominations? Did you do it when single or as a family? Was it necessitated by a church closing or moving to an area without a church in your previous denomination? Or was it a result of an internal change or refocus on theology or something else?
