Daddy’s Boys

Things don’t always go as planned. I could stop right here, and anyone reading knows exactly what I mean and probably either laughs or cries as they think about their latest encounter with the truth of this comment. In fact, a quick Google search came up with seven Bible verses about the “plans of men”, and they all basically say man’s plans fail…every single time. […]

Covenant Established: Christ, Canaan, Countless Generations

It’s amazing how much we miss when we read the Bible because we do not understand the culture of Biblical times. If you don’t know the customs surrounding ancient covenants, you might miss one of the most amazing Old Testament accounts pointing to Christ and mentioned on The Bible from A to Z page for Set C @ https://thebiblefromatoz.com/c.php. It happened one night in Genesis […]

Bad Attitudes, a Big Boat, and Babbling Builders

As you reach for the doorknob to walk into your house, you suddenly stop when you notice footprints below an open widow. Does the hair rise on the back of your neck because you realize an intruder may be in your house, or do you laugh out loud and head inside to find out who got locked out and had to crawl through the window…again? […]

A Perfect Creation Ruined By Sin

You think you know a story until you try to recount every single detail. At least that’s what happened when I started writing the summary for Set A – “A Perfect Creation Ruined by Sin” which is now available on The Bible from A to Z website @ https://thebiblefromatoz.com/a.php! The set covers Creation, The Fall, and the first murder found in Genesis 1 – 5. […]

Have you ever read the Bible?

“Have you ever read the Bible?,” you ask the parent on the bleacher beside you, your waitress at the end of the meal, the man waiting patiently behind you in line, your co-worker, your teacher, your best friend, your child….. If they say no, you respond, “It’s as easy as ABC!” and hand them a Bible with a bookmark explaining the ABC’s with a listing […]

So how do I share this?

I first used the ABC’s in 2014 for the outline in our children’s church curriculum. I used them the following year for a two-week mission trip and a summer reading program at the local library and more recently in an ongoing weekly Bible study with a couple of families. Which bring us to the question – How do you share the same 26 accounts in […]

The Story of it all.

The fact that the Bible goes from Adam to Zion makes using the ABC’s an effective and easy way to share the “story” of the Bible with English speakers. We will be using the word story today because it is part of an important and effective method of teaching used around the globe since the beginning of time – story telling! Although story telling works […]

Welcome Back!

I believe we are starting at the beginning today and figuring out what all this ABC stuff is about. So – the beginning….I grew up in church as the saying goes. I went twice on Sunday and most every Wednesday. I knew all the “stories” and all the Sunday School answers. Nevertheless, I was grown before I put together that Moses had to go get […]

After a day or two of breath taking suspense, you now at least know the name of the project – The Bible From A to Z! Before you […]
