Why to read the Bible books?


Genesis

How did the world begin? Who were chosen people? Find the answers to these questions and more in Genesis.

Exodus

Who was Moses, and how was he involved in two of the most important events in the history of the people of Israel?

Leviticus

Blood sacrifices, grain offerings and special holy days-read Leviticus to find out how these were an important part of the ongoing relationship between to people of Israel and the Lord.

Numbers

God was leading the Israelites to the Promised Land, so why was their trip bumpy and filled with detours?

Deuteronomy

Was Deuteronomy the ancient book of Law discoursed in the temple during the reign of kind Josiah? If so, it may have been the first book of the Bible to be recognized as Holy Scripture. Listen as Moses speaks powerful words about God’s Law to the people of Israel.

Joshua

God keeps promises. At least that’s what the people of Israel hoped as they prepared to enter the land of God had promised to give their ancestor Abraham. Read Joshua to see if the people had the courage to conquer Canaan and settle there.

Judges

Who were “judges” of Israel, and how did God use them? Read Judges to find out.

Ruth

Trying to survive when the odds are against you can be difficult. Read the story of Ruth and her mother-in-law Naomi to find out how a brave and loyal woman survived under difficult circumstances to become the great grandmother of King David.
