Reading The Bible For The First Time At 42 Changed My Life

In 2020, I opened the Bible for the very first time at 42 years old. I wasn’t a Christian then. I didn’t grow up reading Scripture or even really understanding it. But the moment I started reading, something shifted inside me. I now know it was Jesus opening my heart and my eyes to His truth. In this video, I’m sharing my story of how reading the Bible changed everything. From that very first day of curiosity to falling in love with God’s Word, to the way it completely transformed my life, my mindset, and my purpose. If you’re wondering how to start reading the Bible for yourself, or you feel like it’s too late to begin, I want this video to encourage you. You don’t need to be perfect, and you don’t have to have it all figured out. God meets you exactly where you are. As I started growing in my faith, I began sharing my Bible study notes and journaling sessions on Instagram. What began as simple pages of reflection turned into a community of women learning to read, study, and love Scripture together. 💛 Follow my Bible study and journaling journey on Instagram: 👉 🔗 https://www.instagram.com/biblenotesandfaith 🖋️ Check out my printable Bible study and journaling tools in my Stan store: 👉 🔗 https://stan.store/biblenotesandfaith 📚 See my favorite Bible study supplies and tools on Amazon: 👉 🔗 ✨ Topics covered in this video: • How to start reading the Bible as a beginner • My Christian testimony at 42 years old • What happened when I started reading the Bible in 2020 • How Bible journaling helped me understand God’s Word • Finding faith and purpose through Scripture • How to study the Bible for beginners • Tips for Bible journaling without needing to be artistic If this story encouraged you, subscribe and join me as I share practical ways to study Scripture, grow your faith, and bring God’s Word to life through journaling and reflection. #BibleJournaling #ChristianTestimony #HowToReadTheBible #BibleStudyForBeginners #FaithJourney #JesusChangedMyLife Disclosure: Some of the links in this description are affiliate links, which means I may earn a small commission from qualifying purchases at no additional cost to you.
