Digest

Answer from what the passage actually says — stay in the text.

  1. What does this passage show me about God?

    • When and where does God say his words should be talked about?
  2. What does it show me about people — and about myself?

    • Who talked with you about God when you were growing up — or who didn't — and how did that shape you?
  3. What will I obey this week? (a concrete step, with a day)

    • In what ordinary moment this week — a meal, a drive, bedtime — could you speak of God with someone in your home?
  4. Who will I tell?

    • Who — a child, a grandchild, a new believer — could you begin sharing God's words with?

Grow

Growth is God's part, not yours. Do the cycle faithfully and trust Him to give the growth (1 Corinthians 3:6–7).

Pray

Lord, write your words on my heart first, so that they overflow naturally into my home — at the table, on the road, at bedtime.
