Why should we trust the Bible?

In Psalm 119, we see that Scripture is more than a collection of encouraging verses or ancient religious writings. It is the most remarkable, reliable, and relevant story ever told; 66 books written across generations, cultures, languages, and genres, all pointing toward one Savior: Jesus Christ.

Whether you’ve never opened a Bible, you’ve struggled to understand it, or you’ve known Scripture for years but grown cold toward it, this message is an invitation to approach God’s Word differently.

The goal isn’t simply to read the Bible more. It’s to know the God of the Bible, allow His Word to transform us, and share that truth with the people around us.

Because when the Word of God moves in imperfect people, lives change.

Phoenix Bible Church is a church in the heart of the city of Phoenix, Arizona. We desire to engage culture, uphold truth and love people. In a world where life can be heavy and confusing, we want to cover the hard truths - with grace. This is difficulty and messy - and so are we - but the love of Jesus meets us in our mess.

Our rhythm is to gather to worship on Sunday and then scatter during the week to love, live and lead together.

We are imperfect people moved by the perfect love of Jesus.

Come as you are. Experience His love.
