  • Quiet Time vs. Bible Study (w/Erin Warren)
    2025/05/21

    There's a general understanding that those who have a daily "quiet time" are doing it right. And that's not all wrong. But is it best? Is there more for believers in the pages of Scripture than what can be covered in a 15-minute span? Special guest Erin Warren joins Whitney Capps and Russ Greer to talk about the difference between a quiet time or devotional approach to the Bible and truly digging in to God's word.

    2025/04/30
