BRF: Leviticus 1-5
Posted in BRF on January 18, 2008 | 3 Comments »
The first five chapters of Leviticus are pretty much what I expected. Books like this show me what a lazy reader I am. I found myself skimming and have to be more disciplined to read carefully.
What did come through loud and clear was how gracious God is. The definition for grace that [...]

Consider yourself warned. I’m not even going to try to make this short. I want it all written out for my own benefit, and if I’m going to take the time to write it all out I might as well share it in case it will encourage someone else.
This little letter came alive [...]

It’s been a full couple of weeks here, and although I sat down several times to read this book, I don’t think I ever made it through the designated portion for the week. Several attempts does mean that I read the first chapter for each week a few times, so I did learn a [...]

BRF: Judges 11 – 15
Posted in BRF on June 1, 2007 | 1 Comment »
Not much time for typing in these busy days, but I have to take a few minutes to talk about Jephthah.
Last week I talked about Gideon and how excited I was to see how God accomplishes His will through me, in spite of me and totally independent of my ability or willingness or lack thereof. [...]
Book Review Friday: Judges 6 – 10

DISCLAIMER: I started typing an hour ago with the express purpose of keeping it short this week. Partly because I only planned to talk about one thing I learned, and partly because I just don’t have time to type for two hours today. Well, I give up. I’m still only talking [...]

I have a new favourite verse.
When leaders lead in Israel,
When the people willingly offer themselves,
Bless the LORD!
Judges 5:2
I have been reminded once again how much I am like the children of Israel. It is a humbling realization. I am so thankful that God has never deserted His people, in spite of the fact [...]

My Book Review Friday post. On Friday even. I feel like the one who shows up for church an hour early the day after Daylight Savings ends. That’s what happens when one is habitually late: you feel embarrassingly early when you’re on time.
1 Corinthians 13 is always convicting. When I was [...]

I learned a lot this week. I just can’t tell you how exciting it is to be reading AND UNDERSTANDING.
(I do want to say that if you read my very long BRF reviews, I hope they encourage you. I don’t always read all of the reviews because sometimes we are so excited and [...]
