Grounded Theology

Where Everyday Reality and Biblical Reality Converge

Most Christians eventually reach a point where surface-level devotionals no longer satisfy. This publication exists for people who know there is more, and that “more” is found in the treasure chest of God’s Word. Grounded Theology seeks to form a bridge between the deep richness contained in the Bible and the realities of everyday life.

Most articles will take one of the following two approaches:

· Re-examining familiar passages in a fresh, unexpected light, uncovering truths that often get lost in routine reading.

· Unearthing neglected Scriptures, bringing overlooked chapters and verses to bear on our present decisions, habits, and struggles.

It is these truths and insights drawn from Scripture that result in “ah ha” moments and lead to transformation.
