Engage the Word With Elizabeth Rodríguez

Together, the 39 books of the Old Testament and the 27 books of the New Testament tell ONE story. It's the greatest story ever told. This episode includes an easy way to remember the grand narrative of Scripture.

No matter where we are, and no matter what we are doing, God wants us to talk to Him throughout our day. Yet, instead of “ praying at all times in the Spirit ” (Ephesians 6:18), we often neglect our relationship with God—setting aside His love, power, and grace. What is the key to remembering this matchless privilege? Treasuring the One who gave His life to provide it.

What does your heart cling to? What brings you the greatest pleasure? What do you delight in? Creation cannot stoke the flames of your heart more than the Creator of all things. In Christ, through the power of His Spirit, He can awaken affections within us that we can’t even begin to fathom! In this episode, I share the story of how God began to shape my affections.

What does it mean to meditate on God's Word? Whether you are a seasoned Bible reader or you have never opened the Word of God, I hope to equip and encourage you to read the Bible with purpose.

My goal in this introductory episode is to answer four questions: 1.) Who is Elizabeth Rodríguez? 2.) What is this podcast about? 3.) Why did I name this podcast “Engage the Word”? 4.) How will we pursue God through His Word?

My dear friend and sister in Christ, Julia Siegwart, joins me to discuss what engaging the Word looks like in her life. Julia is a wife, a homeschool mom, and a follower of Christ who has served in various roles over the years. We pray that our conversation will glorify God and encourage you to pursue Him through His Word.
