This week we’ll be reading the Bible’s seventh and eight books – Judges and Ruth. Judges is a weird, fascinating time to read about, while Ruth is a tiny book that takes place during the time of Judges, but stands so beautifully apart from it.
In the time of Judges we’ll read about a lot of people, but most of our attention will be drawn to three very important characters – Deborah, Gideon and Samson. Then, our week of reading will close with a story of grace, redemption and great hope in the book of Ruth.
The Bible Reading Coach podcast is designed to help anyone read through the Bible in a year. In 10-15 minutes each Friday, I’ll introduce you to the passage for the following week, including:
- What it’s about
- How to deal with challenging passages
- How the original readers saw it
- How it applies today
- And much more
After listening, take the next week to read the passage on your own. This time you’ll have a clearer understanding of it.
