Jonah 1:1-3 1 Now the word of Jehovah came unto Jonah the son of Amittai, saying, 2 Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their wickedness is come up before me. 3 But Jonah rose up to flee unto Tarshish from the presence of Jehovah; and he went down to Joppa, and found a…
When we think of the book of Jonah, we think of the big fish, and we can easily overlook this book. I have been learning that there is much more than what we expect in the book of Jonah. Today I look at one small aspect of it. I decided to highlight every instance…
I have been learning about this method of studying scripture by looking for common words and themes as I read. I was reading Psalm 101 and noticed something interesting. This seems simple, but the author used the words ‘will’ or ‘shall’ in every line of the Psalm. I think this tells us something. According…
These days, most of my time is consumed with things for my little one, and I’ve been thinking about doing this. It’s a way to learn the alphabet from words and ideas from the bible. We can learn the alphabet and discuss the topics from the verse. I just thought I would share cause…

I know that I love music. I have recently enjoyed singing to my baby girl and find myself singing even after she falls asleep. I have always loved listening to music, and when I hear the right song, I feel like music affects me in a profound way that I cannot understand. But when…
“And this shall be the sign for you: this year eat what grows of itself, and in the second year what springs of the same. Then in the third year sow and reap and plant vineyards, and eat their fruit. And the surviving remnant of the house of Judah shall again take root downward…
Matthew 2:13-15 13 And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him. 14 When he…
Every bedtime, I sing to my daughter the song “Jesus loves me this I know for the Bible tells me so” many times (as long as it takes her to fall asleep). But I eventually started singing, “Jesus loves you; this I know for the Bible tells me so”. Even though she can’t quite…
