Starting with Scripture

Starting with Scripture is a short, reflective podcast that invites you to slow down and begin with the Bible—one passage at a time. Hosted by artist, illustrator, and seminary student Raquel Busa, each episode opens the weekly Gospel reading through gentle storytelling, theological reflection, and creative curiosity. These reflections are not sermons or lectures, but thoughtful pauses—space to wonder, notice, and listen for where God might be meeting us in ordinary life. Rooted in the Lutheran tradition and shaped by art, caregiving, and community life, Starting with Scripture is for anyone seeking a quieter, more accessible way to engage the Gospel. Whether you listen while walking, coloring, journaling, or resting, this podcast is an invitation to begin your week grounded in grace. We start with Scripture—because God is already there, waiting to meet us.
