For the next few weeks, we’ll be reading an increasing number of books. We’re not reading more, the books are just getting smaller. In fact, they were written, not as books, but as letters.
This week we’ll read three mid-sized letters written by Paul to churches he had planted. Two were to Christians in large cities (Corinth and Ephesus), one was to churches in several small towns in a mostly rural region (Galatia).
So much of what we know about grace, faith, and how they operate in our lives as Christians come from these important books.
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.
