Proverbs...seem to have all of the problems we face daily...somewhere.
The wisdom and advice, if taken, make the days of my life easier to handle.
Wow - Proverbs is probably the hardest for me to read! I like reading Luke the best.
What a fun question! I guess I'd have to say Revelation. Does that make me weird? I find the letters to the churches relevant to our churches today and I love the promises of chapter 20.
i've found myself reading a lot of matthew in prayer times, lectionary, or devotional stuff and i've been seeing things in there that i have not seen before, so i'm really enjoying that one
Okay, I'm going to cheat and pick two.
OT - Ecclesiastes
NT - The Revelation of Jesus Christ
Tough question, I like so many of the books. If I were forced to pick one, I'd say the Psalms. They cover the range of human emotion in relationship to God.
Philippians.
Romans.
Anon,
I once heard a pastor on the radio talking about the Book of Proverbs. He recommended that Proverbs has 31 chapters and as a good practice, read one chapter a day. At the end of each month, you will have completed the whole book. In one year, you will have read the book 12 times.
I tried this. I kept it up for about 6 months, and I started and stopped for a couple of months after that. The Book was a huge help to me in my strictly, secular career. Specifically, how to deal with folk, how to judge right from wrong, how to act in a Wise and Godly matter with respect to all aspects of my life. How to deal with money, how to correct wrongs that I had committed (both intentional and unintentional).
I found this Study of the Book of Proverbs very beneficial in my practical, business life, not just on the spiritual side.
