If you’ve ever felt intimidated by the Bible or wondered how to stay engaged with Scripture after years of following Jesus... this episode is for you.

I’m joined by Philip Nation, Vice President and Publisher of Thomas Nelson Bibles (yes, the ones that land on millions of nightstands around the world!). Philip’s heart for making God’s Word accessible is unmatched. We talked about everything from the brand new 50th anniversary edition of the Open Bible, to which translations he recommends, to practical tips for studying Scripture... whether you’re brand new or a lifelong believer.

We also dive into:
✨ How Philip’s life changed at 15 because of one mentor
✨ Why he tells people to start reading the Bible in John (and why I’m switching from Matthew!)
✨ How to keep your Bible reading fresh when it feels stale
✨ The archaeological finds that prove the Bible’s historical accuracy (goosebumps moment)
✨ Why your personal story matters when you share your faith

Plus, Philip breaks down the differences between popular translations like NKJV, NIV, and The Message — and why it’s actually good to read more than one.

Grab your coffee, open your heart, and get ready to fall in love with the Word of God all over again.
