I really appreciate these little Illuminated journals. I only have a couple (as they're not available here), but they're visually beautiful with enough space to journal a bit.

These 3 books of the Bible are incredibly encouraging to me.

As a presentation 5/5
The 3 Biblical Books 5/5

Useful for personal notes, sermon, notes, and commentary highlights.

Filed under Will’s reading. Also—I recommend this series for teens because it’s presented in a smaller and digestible format and has some really nice scripture illustrations they’ll enjoy!

I’m currently working on reading through the Bible in a year and today I finished 1 and 2 Timothy and Titus! Timothy was a young man instructed by Paul. 1 and 2 Timothy were both letters written to give instruction on how to combat false teaching in the early church. 1 Timothy exposes the truth about the Torah and that is shows us the reality of the human condition; we cannot live up to God’s standards. Paul’s encouragement to Timothy is that true Christian teaching is faithful to Jesus and results in love and genuine faith. Paul encourages Timothy to instruct the church of Ephesus to pray, and to gain a proper theological education. Overall this book helps us see a holistic vision of the church, what the church believes will shape how it lives. Paul describes how the church should be known for interfaith and serving the poor. Now Paul is in prison and is writing 2 Timothy; this book broken up into two main sections for Timothy to accept his calling and how to deal with corrupt teachers. With this book comes themes about being a part of something bigger than yourself and remembering God’s faithfulness in which brought Timothy to where he was then. Paul therefore pushes Timothy to respond in faithfulness. Paul then encourages Timothy to raise up faithful leaders to share good theology. Paul expresses the importance of scripture for raising up people in the church. Lastly, the book of Titus was a letter written from Paul to the Greek Follower Titus. Paul makes it clear the Gospel they are speaking of and how He is very different from the Cretan view of gods. The new type of lifestyle Paul is trying to promote about Jesus to Titus is encouragement to living as model citizens, being leaders to look up to, with shared equality with one another. Paul’s point is that the Cretan people will be more attracted to the Christian God when they see the actions lived out based on a whole new value system. We can see through this book, Paul’s missionary strategy, for churches to become agents of transformation this comes through wisely participating in culture, not waging culture wars or assimilation. Altogether, these books give us fantastic glimpses into Paul’s heart for the church, and how to live as Christians.

Want to have a journal for your reading of Scripture? This is great, from the publisher Crossway. This particular journal uses the English Standard Version (ESV). There were copies of this ESV Scripture journal at my work and I picked up a copy.
After a Preface on the Bible and the ESV translation the rest of the journal has the Pastoral Epistles of 1-2 Timothy and the book of Titus. If you open up the book the page on the right is the text of the ESV and the opposite page on the left is blank and has dotted lines for the readers to take notes and journal. I love that this is thin and also its with good quality paper that doesn’t bleed over the next page which has the text of Scripture. I also enjoyed the black cover of the journal and the golden font of the journal in the front cover. Its great that Crossway has it for different books of the Bible and in this case a collection of only the Pastoral Epistles.
I took notes of my own observation of the reading from the ESV and also notes of the Greek from my own personal study that I thought was insightful. Later some of these notes were used for my lessons in teaching through a Greek exegesis course on 1 Timothy. I took this overseas when I went to teach my course and I was glad I did since I normally use the NASB for my English translation but then it turn out the students use the ESV for their English translation; it was great that this thin volume journal came along with me! Its small enough to carry with you for traveling and not also invite attention! That was a big plus. I recommend this.
