Why Bother with the Bible? | Why Bother Series

About this episode

This episode discusses the importance of the Bible in a content-saturated world, emphasizing its role as the living voice of God.

Why bother with the Bible in a world overflowing with content? In a culture where we’re overfed on information but starving for truth, this message challenges the idea that Scripture is just an optional supplement and reveals it as the living voice of God that teaches, corrects, and sustains us. Looking at Jesus’ response in the wilderness, we’re reminded that even He relied on Scripture at His most vulnerable moment, showing us that Scripture is survival not supplement. This message invites you to begin with the Gospel of John, one chapter a day, and rediscover why this Book still matters today. This is week 3 of “Why Bother?” — a seven-week series asking honest questions about faith. ___________________________ Thank you for listening to United Church's podcast!
