We began this series on January 11, 2017 and continues to this day.
It chronicles our ongoing trek through the Bible beginning in Genesis, though our trek has not followed a 100% traditional order.
We have attempted to keep books whose contents are related in time, as much together as possible with some noteworth exceptions.
The specific chapters covered are NOT usually part of the title of each post making specific scriptures a little tricky to find by a simple “search”.
To compensate for that we have a page dedicated to this series which lists each of the scriptures we’ve covered so far as a link. It is our hope that this will help aid you in your studies….God Bless!

Contrary to popular thought this is NOT due to some form of slant against women, native to the Jewish culture. While it is true that God […]
