She discusses why simply having the Holy Spirit does not guarantee correct interpretation and addresses common pitfalls in Bible study, such as the "fortune cookie" method, overachieving, selective reading, and idolizing theologians. Brooke emphasizes the need for careful, personal engagement with scripture, encouraging listeners to test all teachings against the Word of God. The episode concludes with a reminder that the goal of sound doctrine is to preserve the beauty of God and to foster a deeper relationship with Him.Timestamps:00:00 – Introduction and episode overview00:35 – The importance of process in reading scripture01:20 – Jesus’ promise of the Holy Spirit at the Last Supper03:40 – Why Christians interpret scripture differently05:30 – The necessity of proper interpretation and exegesis09:10 – Common mistakes: “Fortune Cookie” Bible reading13:45 – The “Overachiever” approach and its pitfalls17:05 – The “Golden Corral” (selective reading) method18:45 – Idolizing theologians over personal study20:30 – Encouragement to engage personally with scripture21:50 – Preview of next episode and closing thoughtsFor Free Bible Study Resources Please Visit: brookehamlin.org/resources Click HERE to get your own copy of "The Good Portion" Women's Bible Study!
