Today we are looking at James 2:19-20. What can it teach us about who God is?
James is a book in the New Testament with five chapters, considered wisdom literature by some. One way to read the Bible is try a reading plan going through the book of James - you can read a chapter a day on weekdays, for example!
Here are some of the every day resources I use to dive deeper into the Bible:
A Study Bible: My study Bible is this New Living Translation, which has been helpful for me the last ten years in learning to read the Bible.
Youversion Bible: This app is a quick, easy way to read a section in different translations. Sometimes I read a verse in NLT, NIV, ESV, AMP, and The Message to see it from a few different angles and try to understand what is being communicated.
Blue Letter Bible: This website/app is free and full of commentaries, cross references, definitions of root words, and more - it's a great resource for exploring a section of Scripture more in depth.
My recommendation is to read a passage without resources at first, praying and talking to God about help to understand. After that, there are a lot of resources out there!
