Have you ever had a "lightbulb moment" as you read your Bible ... only to later doubt if you were reading that section of Scripture with the right context in mind? If you have a desire to read and apply God's Word to your life with confidence, you've come to the right place!

Today's episode is part of an ongoing series titled "Ask a Theologian" — conversations with Proverbs 31 Ministries' Director of Theological Research, Dr. Joel Muddamalle, and Content Manager for Lysa TerKeurst, Shae Hill. In every episode, Joel and Shae will tackle everyday questions with theological insight and practical takeaways.
