On Sunday we ended our When in Doubt series with Paul’s words to Timothy: “All Scripture is God-breathed and useful… so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.” (2 Timothy 3:16–17)
Here’s a thought I didn’t get to share: our culture often treats truth like a playlist—you just add or skip depending on your mood. But Paul insists truth isn’t curated by us, it’s breathed by God. Which means the Bible isn’t just one voice among many competing for attention; it is the voice that makes sense of all the others. If we sideline it, we don’t just lose information—we lose orientation.
That’s why Paul pictures Scripture as equipping us, like a soldier with armor or a ship with supplies. You and I are not sent into Monday empty-handed. God has given us His Word as a compass that cuts through the spin, the noise, and the deception. And the more we steep ourselves in it, the more it points us beyond itself—to Jesus, the Word made flesh.
