Lisa Harper is an author, speaker, Bible teacher and podcast host, and she recently joined us in Nashville to record episodes of the new NIV Application Bible Podcast. While she was there, we had a chance to ask her about her experiences studying the Bible, advice she would give someone starting their own Bible study journey, and why she's so excited to make the NIV Application Bible her new personal Bible. |

May 12 — A "quiet revival" is emerging in the UK, with young people, particularly men, driving renewed interest in Christianity. Church attendance among 18-24-year-olds rose from 4% in 2018 to 16% in 2024, with young men's attendance increasing to 21%. Bible engagement has also grown, and churches are becoming more diverse thanks in part to immigration, with 19% of attendees from ethnic minorities. (Baptist Press) |
| May 12 — Josh Buice, founder of G3 Ministries, resigned after his church uncovered his use of anonymous social media accounts to criticize Christian leaders, including his own congregation's elders. G3 canceled its 2025 conference following the revelation. Buice confessed after initially denying the allegations. While G3 stated his actions were sinful and divisive, they decided not to remove his teachings from their platform. (Christianity Today) |
| May 13 — A recent study reveals 44% of Americans believe the Bible is worth reading repeatedly … but only 9% have actually done so (though 51% have read at least half of it). While unsure about the Bible's trustworthiness, more view it positively than negatively. Those who read it are evenly divided between reading systematically, following suggestions, and looking up passages as needed. Surprisingly, young adults (18-34) are most likely to read daily.
