One-Word Themes for All the Books of the Bible by Elizabeth George and Jim George

Themes of the Bible

Searching for how to access a more rewarding and fulfilling life? Good news! You can have it. Your better life is as close and as easy as picking up your Bible every day and taking time to let God speak directly to you through it. When you do this, you’ll know what to do and how to handle what that comes along in life. This may seem too good to be true.

How to gain wisdom according to the Bible

At first impression, the Bible looks and feels like any other book. Yet God Himself inspired and directed its more-than-40 different authors over hundreds of years to produce a singular message of salvation. Though the Bible is over 2000 years old and it has faced countless attempts to destroy it, the Bible is the most popular book that has ever been printed.

These facts should cause us to reflect. If the Bible’s claims are true–that it is a message from God about our eternal destiny–isn’t it worth our effort and time to read its message every day? You will never know the significance of God’s Word until you open it and read it for yourself.

Just think — the Bible is all yours, all the time. And it’s the ultimate source of truth and power. God’s Word makes its way into your heart. It charges your soul. And it changes your views about yourself, other people, and the things that are happening in your life.

Suggestions to keep in mind as you read and study the Bible:

Today, let’s take a closer look at someone who sat at Jesus’ feet and received His praise. Can you imagine that—receiving God’s praise!

Getting Through Difficult Days

One of my favorite words in the English language is “bittersweet.” It’s sort of like the well-known announcement, “I’ve got good news and bad news. Which do you want first?” This picturesque term always reminds me that many occurrences in life fall simultaneously into the glad/sad category, bringing forth both emotions at once.
