I realized recently that copies of the New Testament (the whole Bible for that matter) are really inexpensive these days. With that in mind, my wife Julie and I decided we were going to start intentionally re-reading through the entire New Testament, a new copy each time, with specific focus, highlighting and noting only passages speaking to a specific topic in each copy. And we intend to swap translations from time to time to keep a fresh perspective.
In our first trek down a singular-focused re-reading we are watching specifically for passages that appear to speak to the global Church, the local Body of Christ (church), and synagogues or meeting places. It's already been interesting as we discover how many fliters we unknowingly apply as we explore and encounter Scripture.
It's already been awesome. I started this new category just for posting insights from our readings.
