#136 [Let God’s Word Transform You] with Portia Collins
Do you feel intimidated when it comes to opening your Bible? Do you read your Bible but feel like you don’t get much out of it? Do you need something to freshen up your current Bible-studying routine?
My guest today is the lovely Portia Collins, a Christian Bible teacher, writer, and podcaster with a passion for sharing God’s Word. But it hasn’t always been that way. Portia shares her story of struggle, of turning to the Bible in desperation, and how when she did, she was changed.
You’ll hear us talk about…
Why we need to study the Word for ourselves
Reading vs. studying
Getting started with Bible study
Fresh ideas for experienced bible-studiers
Portia is the founder of She Shall Be Called, a nonprofit women’s ministry focused on Bible literacy. You can also catch her hosting two weekly podcasts: Grounded—a podcast/videocast from Revive Our Hearts—and Sweet Tea with Jasmine & Portia.
Portia and her husband, Mikhail, have a daughter and currently make their home in the Mississippi Delta. Although she is a full-time working wife and mom, she is never too busy to enjoy a few of her favorite things. She enjoys cooking traditional Southern dishes, getting lost in a good book, & writing.
