How to BE with the Word in a DOing World with Michelle Nezat

January 23, 2025

This week, I’m joined by Michelle Nezat, a passionate Bible teacher, podcaster, and Christian fiction author, as she shares her mission to help believers fall deeply in love with God’s Word. If you’ve ever felt unsure about how to engage with Scripture or found yourself relying on devotionals, music, or conversations as substitutes for the Bible itself, this conversation is for you.

Michelle is the host of the More Than a Song** podcast**, where she has spent over a decade guiding listeners to connect with Scripture through the lens of Christian music. Now, as the author of the Christian fiction novel A Seat at the Table, she’s using storytelling as a creative way to inspire readers to explore deep theological truths and engage with God’s Word in fresh, meaningful ways.

Here’s what we explore in this episode:

  • Why engaging with God’s Word is critical for spiritual growth.

  • How Christian music can act as a springboard to study the Bible.

  • Practical tools to help you start—or restart—your journey with Scripture.

  • Breaking free from cultural distractions to refocus on the truth of God’s Word.

  • The role of Christian fiction in helping readers connect with biblical themes and theology.

Michelle encourages us to “seek His face before seeking His hand” and reminds us that the Bible isn’t just a book—it’s a life-giving conversation with our Creator, filled with treasures waiting to be discovered.

Whether you’re a seasoned Bible reader or someone struggling to prioritize Scripture, this episode will reignite your desire to sit at the feet of the Father, grow in faith, and experience the joy of His Word.

About She Considers a Field… Podcast

The mission of the She Considers a Field… podcast is to encourage and equip homeschooling entrepreneurs to build a legacy of peace, purpose and JOY.

If you’re a homeschooling entrepreneur, you are uniquely equipped to advance the Kingdom of God – both deep, through educating and raising your children, and wide, through your business. But guilt, frustration and overwhelm can keep us stuck from walking in all the Father has for us. As a fellow homeschooling entrepreneur mama with almost a decade of practice in both spaces, I understand how soul-stretching these roles are. On this podcast, you’ll find compassionate, strategic talk about how to wear all the many hats WELL – from a place of fullness, not deficit. Whether you’re currently homeschooling and running a business or you’re simply wanting to be intentional about walking out your faith in the areas of family and finance, there’s something for you here.

This road of stewarding well the gifts God has given us isn’t always easy – but it’s always worth it.
