How to Read the Bible Without a Theology Degree (& Actually Enjoy It) | Faith Womack (Bonus Episode)

How to Read the Bible Without a Theology Degree (& Actually Enjoy It) | Faith Womack (Bonus Episode)

For those who are new here, I occasionally release bonus episodes designed for a specific part of my audience. I have listeners from all kinds of faith backgrounds, and this episode is shared from a Christian perspective. If that’s not quite what you’re looking for today, feel free to explore the other episodes released this week—or join me back here next Tuesday for a conversation you won’t want to miss!

------------------

Today’s guest says the Bible was never meant to be boring - it’s that we’ve forgotten how to read it with curiosity and context. Author and content creator Faith Womack, founder of Bible Nerd Ministries and author of No More Boring Bible Study, is on a mission to help everyday Christians rediscover Scripture as a living story, not a rulebook. In this episode, we talk about breaking free from spiritual burnout, understanding literary genres in the Bible, and how to bring your faith back to life - without needing a theology degree. If you’ve ever felt disconnected from Scripture or unsure where to start, this conversation will remind you that God’s Word was written for you, not just scholars.
