As we live in a time of the 3 hour news cycles and social media where anyone can publish anything at any time, consider the words of the Apostle Paul to Timothy;

2 Timothy 4:3-4

"For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions,
and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths."

Do you regularly choose sources of information that incite your own passions and confirm your own bias? Or do you seek the truth even if it is contrary to your world view, passions or interests? Are we allowing the scriptures to transform our minds much more then all the media controversies?

Pastor Roberts message on studying the bible last Sunday was so timely I thought I would share the five simple questions Robert presented;

1. Read prayerfully

2. Read Daily

3. Read to learn

4. Ask questions and record your thoughts

5. Apply what you learn
