WATCH and READ

For each book of the Bible, we’ve provided two distinct but equally helpful resources: one to watch and one to read. Both walk alongside the same Scripture, offering different perspectives to help guide and encourage you as you read.

 

OLD TESTAMENT
GENESIS 
It is in these very pages of Genesis where we learn about the power and nature of God. We learn His name, His character, and His desire. Furthermore, this is where we learn our origin, purpose, and function.

EXODUS
There is a dominant theme and purpose of the book— God redeems and rescues His people from their bondage in Egypt. This is actually what the word “Exodus” means— it means “The way out.” God was going to give them the way out of the land of bondage, by way of redemption, and take them to the land of promise.

LEVITICUS
If we were going to do a brief comparison from Exodus to Leviticus, we might say that Exodus is God showing His people the way out of Egypt, but Leviticus is God getting Egypt out of His people.

NUMBERS
The actual Hebrew name for this particular book is, “In the Wilderness” which comes from the first set of words written in the book, “And the LORD spake unto Moses in the wilderness…” And this wilderness, at least at first, was full of potential and possibility.

DEUTERONOMY
The book of Deuteronomy is a series of messages given by Moses to God’s people before entering into the land of Canaan, and each sermon highlights new challenges the people would face.

JOSHUA
Joshua was a great servant and a great war hero, but now, we watch him transition into the role of one of the great leaders mentioned in all of the Bible. His name actually means Jehovah Saves, and by God’s grace, Joshua was able to live up to his name.

JUDGES
The book of Judges gets its name from a series of leaders God raises up to guide His people out of their moral depravity. They were God’s chosen leaders who would become a guiding light to lead God’s wayward people out of their moral darkness.

RUTH
The story of Ruth takes the reader from the ashes of one woman’s life, and how God creates something completely beautiful out of it.

I & II SAMUEL
As we watch the young nation of Israel grow politically as the new office of “king” is put into place, at the same time, we get to watch a new spiritual facet begin to form as the new office of “prophet” is put into place.

I & II KINGS
In the beginning of our journey, a snapshot was given of Israel’s history and there was a brief mention of the split of the kingdom. This is where that happens. In these two books, you are covering a period of 400 years of history in a very condensed form, and having to toggle between two different nations.

I & II CHRONICLES
When you read the books of Chronicles, it is said to be written from a priestly point of view. This is a perspective of history given after the captivity of God’s people, and from this view, it is believed that Chronicles is said to highlight Israel’s history from a divine standpoint.

EZRA
Around 538 BC, Cyrus allowed God’s people to return to their homeland, and around 535 BC, God commissioned this same king who was used by God to rebuild the temple. This is the purpose behind this book.

NEHEMIAH
Originally, Nehemiah was an official in the king’s court. He served the king Artaxerxes as a cupbearer. While in this position, Nehemiah had heard of the sad condition of the city wall and gates, and God finally led him to take on the task of rebuilding the wall.

ESTHER
Oftentimes, God does not show up in mighty revelation of tangible power and strength, rather He is working in the background, causing us to take every step by faith. Oh, but when we look back on those events we thought were devastating at the time, we see that God’s hand was never missing from our lives.

JOB
If you don’t need Job’s message right now, just wait a while and be patient… because sooner or later, you will. Job is the literal narrative of a man who struggled with the age-old question, “Why do bad things happen to people who love God?”

PSALMS
The name ‘Psalms’ comes from the Greek word ‘Psalmos’ and means “A poem to be sung to a stringed instrument.” In the Hebrew language, two words describe the book of Psalms, and the first is “Tehillim” which means praise, and the second is “Tephiloth” which means prayer.

PROVERBS
It is believed that Solomon wrote the book of Proverbs while a middle-aged man trying to encapsulate important lessons that his sons would need to know once they were ruling after his reign had come to an end. You can see evidence of this by the continual use of “My Son…” written all throughout the book.
Click for More Resources >>
ECCLESIATES
The overall purpose, to state it another way, is to get people to move away from life in the world. Solomon is seriously crying out for us to listen to him when it comes to the way we live our lives.
Click for More Resources >>
SONG OF SOLOMON
It is believed that King Solomon wrote this book when he was a young king and in love. This book comes at the end of the poetic books. What we are reading in the Song of Solomon is a storyline of a couple, but entrenched below the surface is a great deal of symbolism to sift through as well.

ISAIAH
The name of Isaiah means the Salvation of Jehovah. God used this man to speak to God’s people regarding the impending judgment on God’s people, but by the end of Isaiah’s ministry, a new message was heralded— the message of how God would, in fact, save His people.

JEREMIAH and LAMENTATIONS
As stated in the title, God’s man Jeremiah has often been called the “Weeping Prophet” or the “Prophet of Midnight.” The reason is because his message was one of extreme heartache. The job that God gave him was one that none of us would want, and in fact, even Jeremiah didn’t want it.

EZEKIEL
There is so much interest in this book because it contains lessons, stories, pronouncements, pictures, and predictions that cover a wide range of topics. Further, some of the information contained in this book is very cryptic in nature to even the most clever of minds.

DANIEL
The book of Daniel is probably the most well-known of the Major Prophets, but it is also the most contested. Daniel was about 20 years old when he was taken to Babylon and was probably 23 when he was called of God to serve in the high office of prophet

HOSEA
    
Hosea had one of the strangest ministries among all of the prophets because of what God had called him to do. The name Hosea means “Salvation” but during a portion of his ministry, his life looked like a contradiction of sorts.

JOEL
    
The prophecy of Joel is a small book, but it is surrounded and initiated by great tragedy. Its message contains a devastating plague of locust and a famine that results, leaving the people in a terrible amount of desperation.

AMOS
    
God used all kinds of individuals to preach to God’s people. In this case, God used an old country farmer to preach to God’s people. Amos was a man who was a farmer and a shepherd and lived just South of Bethlehem.

OBADIAH
    
Obadiah is an interesting little book, and when we say ‘little’ that is exactly what we mean. It is a tiny book. With only 21 verses total, Obadiah is one of the shortest books in the Bible. However, the history surrounding this prophecy is very large by comparison.

JONAH
    
Jonah is one of the most fun, exciting, sorrowful, and convicting stories in all of the Bible. People of all ages are fascinated with the story of Jonah and the great fish.

MICAH
    
Micah was a prophet who was in one of those unique positions where he was able to see Jerusalem in its good times, and then was brought down with sorrow as he witnessed her destruction. His name means “Who is Like Jehovah” and the whole of this book is bound up in the meaning of this name.

NAHUM
    
Much of what we would like to know about this prophet of God remains hidden from us. We know his name; Nahum. We know that his name means “Comforter.” We know what he discloses in his prophecy, and that it is anything but “comforting” to those to whom he is writing.

HABAKKUK
    
Now the book of Habakkuk is very interesting. We’ve spoken before about the creativity of God in terms of how the prophetical writings differed from one another and all the different methods God used to grab the attention of the original audience.

ZEPHANIAH
    
What we know about Zephaniah captures the imagination. His name means “He Whom Jehovah Hides” and he is the only prophet who was of royal blood.

HAGGAI
    
The time of Haggai occurred after that time when the priest Ezra, along with 50,000 people were released from Babylonian captivity in 536 B.C.

ZECHARIAH
    
This is a man who had a dual job from God. Zechariah was both a prophet and a priest and provides one of the most exciting images of the future we have in the Bible.

MALACHI
    
This is the last prophet to speak to God’s people for more than four hundred years!

NEW TESTAMENT
MATTHEW 
Matthew serves as a bridge between the Old and New Testaments. In fact, Matthew quotes the Old Testament 129 times and uses twenty-five out of the thirty-nine books to do so.

MARK
The book of Mark is truly outstanding when you come to learn of the human author who penned these words. Following the journey of Mark is absolutely fascinating. The writer Mark is also known as John Mark in the New Testament. John was his Jewish name, and Mark was his Roman name.

LUKE
Luke was consumed and passionate about the message of His Savior and presenting it in the most accurate way possible. That is exactly what a good historian would do, and Luke was an absolutely marvelous historian. He was careful to write and record every pertinent detail of the life of Christ.

JOHN
Many have called the Gospel of John the “Heavenly Gospel” because it is a book that has its beginnings directly in the realm eternal. John did not want anyone to be confused about what was happening or exactly who you were encountering as you read this Gospel.

ACTS
It is in Acts where we learn about the vital features of church life. It is also in this book where we learn, and observe, and pattern ourselves in such a way that honors Christ in performing Biblical Missions work, starting new churches as we continue to lovingly proclaim the Gospel.

ROMANS
Think of the book of Romans as a little field guide for theology. The best thing you can do for young Christians is to teach them all about their Christian faith, and Romans does this in full measure.

I CORINTHIANS
With a thriving, vibrant population of 700,000 people, the City of Corinth was an exciting place to start a church. The potential was massive. Corinth was one of the most important cities in all of Greece and was the very capital of the Roman province of Achaia.

II CORINTHIANS
2 Corinthians is probably one of the most heartfelt writings you will ever engage with because it is the passionate plea from a pastor’s heart toward a struggling congregation. Paul bears his heart in this letter more than any of his other letters.

GALATIANS
Leave the Gospel alone! Is the heart cry for this letter of Paul. This book ties to the book of Romans as you look at the message and the content. It’s a book of Romans in miniature as Paul is explaining the finer points of salvation.

EPHESIANS
The book of Ephesians is the church book. Some of the richest and most profitable information on what it means to be part of a church, and how we operate with one another, exists right here in the verses and chapters of this letter.

PHILIPPIANS
There have been so many people who have been helped and blessed by this little letter to the Philippians. It provides so much practical insight in such a short amount of time.

COLOSSIANS
“Jesus over everything!” is Paul’s cry in this letter. When we get Jesus right, we’ll get worship right, we’ll get our identity right, we’ll get our living right, we’ll get our focus right. If you put Jesus first, then you’ll never go wrong.

I THESSALONIANS 
A church with a testimony! If you are a preacher, or simply just have a passion for the lost and would love to see your church follow after your same passion, then this first letter to the Thessalonian people will feed your soul.

II THESSALONIANS
Sometimes all you need is for someone that loves to tell you to keep moving forward. That’s what Paul tried to do. Their need for encouragement was more than matched by Paul’s desire to care for them.

I TIMOTHY
It was on Paul’s second missionary journey that Paul had the pleasure of leading young Timothy to Christ. When God gives you the privilege of leading a soul to Christ, your hearts are bound. And from Acts 16, when Paul visited the city of Lystra, that is exactly what had happened.

II TIMOTHY
The tone is quite different from 1 Timothy to 2 Timothy. In Paul’s first letter to Timothy, it’s clear that Timothy needed Paul. In the second letter, it’s clear that Paul needs Timothy. The roles have reversed.

TITUS
Do you ever feel like sometimes you are given a heavy weight to bear in life, but when it comes down to it, you’re the only person for the job? This was Titus when it came to ministry.

PHILEMON
Believing the Gospel of Christ is what brings your dead spirit to life. It was dead, hopeless, lifeless, unable to move, and unable to be satisfied in any way, and then by trusting the Gospel, God, by the Holy Spirit, makes you alive in Him. That’s a massive change!

HEBREWS
The book of Hebrews would win the award for being the most unusual and most difficult-to-understand book of the New Testament. However, from a Christological standpoint, the book of Hebrews would win the award for being the most explanatory and Christ-centered book of the New Testament.

JAMES
If you’re looking for fluffy and soft, don’t read the book of James. But if you’re looking for truth-driven and practical, because you care what God has to say, then you can soak yourself in the deep well of Christian commentary that exists in this action-packed book of the Bible.

I PETER
Studying the life of Peter is always exciting because anywhere you go in the life of this man, for better or worse, he will teach you something either to aspire to or something to stay far away from, depending on where you decide to go in his life.

II PETER
In this second letter that Peter writes, you can see that he is increasingly concerned about false teachers worming their way into congregations, and God’s people needed to know how to defend themselves against the kinds of lies that would threaten their existence as a church.

I JOHN
The apostle John believed that possessing the right knowledge was the key to living a Christian life that is full to the brim with spiritual success and spiritual confidence. There was no doubt in his mind that if you had the right knowledge, you could really experience a difference.

II JOHN
There is a mystery that captures us right from the beginning of this book. 1 John 1, says, “The elder unto the elect lady and her children, whom I love in the truth;” Two immediate questions come to mind right away, “Who is the elder?” and “Who is the elect lady?”

III JOHN
In 3 John, John is addressing a situation when there is not a threat of truth at stake, but a threat of pride. And when there is a threat of pride at stake, John is going to help us through some things that will help us to show hospitality in those kinds of situations.

JUDE
This is the book that came from a changed mind. John MacArthur suggests that an appropriate title for this book could be “The Acts of the Apostates” because of the content found in this book.

REVELATION
To say this is an intriguing book in the Bible would be a tragic understatement. To say this has been a popular book in the Bible would be a tragic understatement. To say that this book has confused a lot of people would be a tragic understatement. So let’s try and learn it!
