Practicing The Way - Reading Scripture

Central to the Way of Jesus is the practice of reading and meditating on the Scriptures - the Written Word of God. Jesus, as he brought a new covenant and a new Way, did not do away with this key element Jewish culture, but fully embodied it. He not only embraced the Jewish Scriptures, but fully internalized them, meditated on them, memorized them. In a world today where truth is relevant and circumstantial; where we long to know Yahweh, walk with him, and obey him; and where we recognize that what we give our attention to changes us, the invitation to consistently meditate on the Scriptures is as relevant now as it ever has been.
