“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.” Hosea 4:6b (New King James Version)
This verse really spoke to me as I did my morning devotionals before my first day of school. I was on my way to learn a lot of good stuff. Not all this "stuff" is completely necessary for the average Christian (not everybody is called to seminary). However, properly trained leadership is very important for the church as a whole. And that’s why I am at seminary! Christianity is about love and relationship. But accurate knowledge of God’s word to us in scripture (the Bible) keeps us living in the Truth and from going astray.

It is amazing for all the people who say they are Christian, and yet don't read the Bible. How can one stand, if we don't know what we stand for? This verse is a good reminder to pray for all of us to read God's Word, join a Bible study and invite the people in our life to join us.mom
