We are almost to the beginning of a new month, which means more Scripture verses! I received a suggestion to work through a smaller book of the Bible over a month, and I think this is a lovely idea! What better way to make sure we are keeping everything in context? This month, we will be journeying through the book of Colossians. I highly recommend that you take a few minutes to read about the city of Colosse to better understand the backdrop of this book. Look for the following.
- religious practices
- gods they worshipped
- location on the map, trade routes, country, etc.
- daily life
Also take a look at some of the players mentioned in the book, like:
- Paul
- Timothy
- Epaphras
- believers in Laodicea
- Tychicus
- Onesimus
- Aristarchus
- Mark
- Luke
- Demas
- Nympha
- Archippus
Wow, there are a lot of names in Colossians! I didn’t realize until I started typing them out. There are plenty of resources available, such as Bible dictionaries and commentaries.
Now, on to this month’s free download. As always, it includes the verse list and matching blank journal pages. You can download it by clicking the image or button below.
We have already been copying Scripture together for over a year! Thank you for joining me. It’s always beneficial to take the time to get in the Word every day. If you would like to catch up, or get all the first year’s downloads all at once, you can find them in the store as a PDF. They are still available for free in the separate blog posts. This purchase just conveniently puts them all together for you. Thank you for all your support, and for prioritizing Scripture in your home.
