Have you ever been puzzled or shocked by a Bible verse?

Episode 58 (Psalms, 4th session)– Have you ever come across a verse in the Bible and wondered, “I have no idea what this means!” Or, worse, have you ever been downright shocked by a verse that seems vengeful, or vicious, or just plain mean or mysterious?

How about... “Happy is the one who dashes your babies against the rock, Babylon.”

Yes, this is a verse in the Bible. Psalm 137:9, to be exact. Now, how does one reconcile this with God’s kindness and patience?

How can Scripture be more than markings on a page? Stephanie humbly challenges us to learn to read the Bible with the help of the Holy Spirit today!

After this meaty example of Babylonian babies and their link to our modern-day thoughts, we switch gears to focus on Psalms 45 and 110, the two famous Royal Messianic Psalms.

Speaking of meaty content, who was Melchizedek, and what does he have to do with the Psalms?

How can Jesus say that we can't love our family more than Him, and yet still be worthy of the Kingdom?

Well, there’s only one way to find out. Take a listen now!

Whether you are a new believer in Christ, or a seasoned Bible student, we hope and pray you will be blessed by this episode today!

“Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart.” Psalm 37:4 isn’t a poetic suggestion — it’s a promise. But many believers quietly assume it doesn’t really work, or it’s not really possible – or they’ve kinda lost sight of it along the way.

In "Awaken Delight," I’m inviting you to rediscover what Scripture actually means by delight in God— not emotional hype, not religious performance, but a steady satisfaction rooted in who God is. Through biblical theology and practical rhythms, you will learn how communion with God reshapes suffering, quiets restless striving, and anchors your identity in something unshakable.

"Awaken Delight" is a theologically grounded spiritual formation book for thoughtful believers who feel spiritually fatigued, and ready to embrace the reality of Psalm 37:4.
