Daily Post #22

Concerning my reading and study of Scripture, I am doing something right now that I am enjoying. I have made the book of Romans my focus. As part of my time with the Lord in the morning, I am reading through Romans, finishing, and then starting over. Over the next few months, my plan is to read it over and over again. Immersing oneself in a book can help a person gain a birds-eye view of the book/letter as well as make intimate connections. Along with this, I have a commentary that I really like for the book of Romans (something more than just a life-application commentary). I am reading through the entire commentary little by little along with reading through the book over and over. My plan is to then move on to another book in a few months. I want to know the book inside and out. You might consider doing this. If you want a recommendation, DM me!

Here is one of the books that my wife and kids got for me for Father’s Day (it was in my list): Abraham Kuyper: A Centennial Reader. I am excited to start!

My wife keeps saying something to me that I have found both refreshing and helpful: Read what brings you joy.
