Bible

These are the verses and passages that have shaped me.

This isn't a study tool. I love study: the Hebrew, the lexicons, the commentaries stacked on the desk. But this page is something else. It's the words that stayed with me after the books were closed. Some of them found me on hard days. Some found me on ordinary ones, which may be where they matter most.

I'll share each passage and a few words about why it stayed. Then I'll get out of the way and let the text do its quiet work.
