Sola Scriptura: Sweetness Over Junk Food

Have you ever noticed how your appetite works? If you spend the whole afternoon snacking on cheap, processed junk food, you’ll find that when a gourmet, home-cooked meal is placed in front of you, you aren't even hungry for it. You’ve filled up on things that provide a quick hit of salt and sugar but offer zero nourishment. Our spiritual lives work the exact same way. We often wonder why the Bible feels "dry" or "boring" to us, but the truth is usually that we’ve already filled our hearts with the "junk food" of digital distractions, worldly anxieties, and constant entertainment. We aren't hungry for the Truth because we’re stuffed with the trivial.
