JL Gerhardt joins us to encourage us to “look at God” and spend intentional, devoted time with Him. She discusses some practical steps we can try to grow in our love for the Lord through Bible study and quiet time.
A little bit about the guest:
JL (Jennifer) Gerhardt is an author and Bible teacher devoted to the work of helping people see, know, and love God. A former Storytelling Minister, college English teacher, and newspaper journalist, Gerhardt is currently traveling around the world with her family (husband Justin, daughters London and Eve) and hosting conferences for families called, The Storied Family. This is Gerhardt’s seventh book.

JL is reading Circe by Madeline Miller, and listening to Holy Ghost Stories. She is being refreshed by Magnum bars and Ted Lasso.
Noteworthy quotes:
“That is just so fascinating to me– that the God of the universe is like ‘Hey, I’d like it if you’d look at me.’” - 13:05
“The first way to read the Bible– the greatest way to read the Bible– is looking to love.” - 14:31
“Focus is required because distraction is constant.” - 16:19
Questions for consideration:
<ul>
 <li>Is “looking at God” a routine you’ve devoted time to? If it’s not a routine you’ve already established, when can you spend some intentional, devoted time with the Lord?</li>
</ul>
