Bücher von David Patterson

It is a known fact that throughout the centuries our language has changed. Definition of words and how they were used are often different from today, and some have been lost to time. In order to begin understanding God and Jesus through the accounts of his prophets, chosen kings, servants, teachers, and countless others, we must bridge the gap of time and make sure we are rightly dividing the Word in order to truly understand it. True understanding of the living Word is a lifelong journey that cannot be rushed or done quickly to keep a schedule. It is better to fully understand and retain a few scriptures than read through thousands but understand and retain nothing. In this first volume, we will begin our journey using one of the most popular translations of the Bible to explore scriptures surrounding several topics for your everyday life. Along with inspirational messages, prayers, and activities to reinforce what you have learned, the Word will stick with you long after you set this book down.
