Love the Bible

Did you know that one of the most famous verses in the Bible is found in Habakkuk?

In this episode, host Kristin Nave takes us deeper into the Book of Habakkuk, focusing on Chapter 2. Kristin explores the themes of lament, waiting, and active faith as exemplified by the Prophet Habakkuk. She reflects on the connection between this somewhat obscure Old Testament text and its profound impact on Paul and the New Testament teachings, emphasizing the concept of justification by faith. Kristin also discusses the importance of patience and waiting on God, and how sometimes God silences us so that we can learn to listen for His voice rather than constantly relying on ourselves.
