A Verse From Every Book In The Bible
About 15 months ago I set out to post a verse a week from every book in the Bible, from Genesis to Revelation, on Facebook and Twitter. Well, I finished today, so I’m posting all 66.
These were designed to fit into Twitter, so they’re all short (although I edited slightly below, so some may be a little longer. I cheated with Zephaniah and posted it in two posts).
Next week I’ll start on a new Monday project. 🙂
