    Isaiah is mine

  2. Comment by Robert

    The Book of Job is one that I often think of when I’m feeling overwhelmed and down.

  3. Comment by Jason

    Matthew – Why? Sermon on the Mount. :)

  4. Comment by Debbie

    ROMANS in the NT because it lays out the doctrines of salvation by faith so beautifully.
    RUTH in the OT. I love the portrayal of the Messiah

    My favorite is the Book of John.
    Because = I think it contains the most important verse in the entire Bible – John 3:16(Both the Old and New Testaments are built around that concept of redemption).

    Also Because = John underscores LOVE as the foundation of being a Christian.

    Also Because = It is so chock-full of relevent living information. Our Bible study group took 3 years to cover the book on a verse by verse basis(once a week).

    Grace and Peace.

    *Proverbs*

    *Proverbs*…& it is because I can relate to the practical wisdom that the Proverbs contain.

    The Lord begot me, the firstborn of his ways, the forerunner of his prodigies of long ago; From of old I was poured forth, at the first, before the earth. When there were no depths I was brought forth, when there were no fountains or springs of water; Before the mountains were settled into place, before the hills, I was brought forth; While as yet the earth and the fields were not made, nor the first clods fo the world.
    – Proverbs 8:22-26

    James…gives us straight forward directions – very no nonsense!

    Kings and Chronicles as I enjoy the history. And all 4 as they go together.

    Whoops, forgot the “why” part…

    Because the love is so beautiful, so deep and inspiring!

    Like EH,
    The book of James, I use it as a “two by four” across the back of my head.

    hezekiah

  14. Comment by Alyson

    Hebrews- It still stirs the same passion and holy fear I felt as a child entering the sanctuary. Approaching God was so exciting because I knew he was there waiting for me.

    Alvin, I appreciate your non-favorite but I prefer my favorite, Hebrews.

    Sir,Apologies for the mix up above. In view of the fact that this is a blog wordbyte I can’t reduce my point to one word since your response to the question is so long and almost propaganda like with statements that are in no way verifiable other than as statement of hope trust and honestly felt. You have made your point but are others able to provide more extended answers which are not quite so dogmatic Kenneth sale
