i always start reading the Old Testament....

and end up getting through a few books

and going back to the New Testament for all my reading.

so this year, i asked for some reference books

to shed some light on the history, people, events.etc....

basically to make it easier for me to understand.

my dear husband gave me several books for Christmas

and this is the one i started with.....

and i am so enjoying it!

as i said earlier.....i don't retain history well,

but i am gleaning a lot of information with reading this along with the Bible

and i am retaining it too!

i'm loving it!

a new beginning

for a new year!
