Pressing In with Jamie De Silvia

Hosted by Jamie De Silvia, Christian author and speaker. ”Pressing In” is a safe place to press into the Word and the heart of God and seek a glimpse of His perspective. Excerpt from the show: We’re going to do things a little bit differently around here, and I think you’re going to love it. One of the questions that people ask me is “HOW do you get so much out of the Bible?” I’ve been known to teach for 45 minutes on one verse! There is a lot to be found if we are willing to seek it out. Proverbs 25:2 says “It is the glory of God to conceal a matter, and the glory of man to search it out.” There is so much truth and insight concealed in the pages of the Bible! Jamie has a passion for connecting people to the heart of God with Biblical insight, authenticity, and grace. She is the author of interactive devotional books that create intimate moments with Jesus in a short amount of time each day. They include rich insight from the scriptures as well as thought-provoking questions that will draw the reader closer to God. Visit her website at https://jamiedesilvia.com/
