I have been praying about the lost connection between what we believe and how we live. Sometimes I feel the gap is based more on our lack of understanding how we are to apply our theology than an unwillingness to obey. Having this conviction in my own life I decided to focus my devotion time on biblical theology with a focus on application. I am asking questions like, “How does this theological truth impact my heart and mind?” “How does this truth impact the actions of my life?” “How is this relevant to my day-to-day living?” “How do I live out the sometimes abstract truths of scripture?”
What I have found is a deeper purpose for theology and a greater passion for application. This is my attempt at applied biblical theology. I plan to keep it short and to the point, often building on concepts over several days for the sake of a singular thought each day. I will post these under the category, Devotions.
I pray you are encouraged as we look simply at deep truth with a goal toward application.
