How do you actually spend time with God? What should a daily quiet time look like, and how do you build a consistent habit of reading the Bible, praying, and worshiping without turning your relationship with God into another religious checklist?

Welcome to Episode 3 of Bible Club with David & Mikayla, a Bible Club Co. original!

In this episode, David Blease and Mikayla Blease share their personal routines, practical advice, and biblical encouragement for developing a meaningful daily relationship with God.

We explore what the Bible says about training ourselves in godliness, why spiritual disciplines matter, and how to make intentional time with God even in the busiest seasons of life.

Mikayla also shares a powerful personal vision that completely transformed the way she approaches her quiet time, reminding us that spending time with God isn't about fulfilling a religious obligation. It's about responding to a God who desires to know us intimately.

In this episode, we discuss:

• How to start a daily quiet time with God
• The three essentials: Scripture, prayer, and worship
• How to build spiritual discipline without becoming legalistic
• Practical Bible reading plans, journaling, and prayer routines
• A simple 15-minute quiet time anyone can start
• Why your time with God doesn't have to look like someone else's
• How to reconnect with God when you feel spiritually dry
• Why consistency matters more than perfection

Which Bible translation is best? KJV, NIV, ESV, NLT, NKJV... and are we sometimes reading the Bible wrong?

Welcome to Episode 2 of Bible Club with David & Mikayla, a Bible Club Co. original.

In this episode, David Blease and Mikayla Blease have an honest conversation about Bible translations, biblical context, the Old Testament, and why understanding the world in which Scripture was written can completely change the way you read the Bible.

We unpack the difference between word for word and thought for thought translations, why there is no perfect English Bible translation, and what to do when you come across weird or confusing passages in Scripture.

But translation is only part of the conversation.

Every one of us brings a lens to the Bible. We are modern, Western readers approaching an ancient, Eastern text. Understanding the Jewish, historical, and cultural context of Scripture can help us see things the original audience would have immediately understood.

David and Mikayla also explore why Christians still need the Old Testament, what Romans teaches about law and grace, the relationship between Jewish and Gentile believers, and why the Old and New Testaments aren't competing stories about two different versions of God.

They are one story of one God unfolding His plan of redemption from Genesis to Revelation.

Ultimately, Bible study isn't simply about knowing more about the Bible. It's about knowing the God of the Bible.

Scripture reveals His character. Prayer draws us into relationship with Him. Worship engages our hearts. Together, they help us grow in intimacy with God and become more like Jesus.

Grab your Bible. Grab your coffee. Welcome to Bible Club.

Seek God. Study His Word. Stir one another up.
