This Bible study is based on Bible Readings for the Home, a topical study presented in a question-and-answer format. The scripture references come from both the KJV and NIV translations. Additionally, we’ve provided links to each verse from the World English Bible for a more modern interpretation. We encourage you to follow along in your own Bible, reflect on the guided questions, and highlight the verses that speak to you. Feel free to share this study with your friends and family. Enjoy the journey!
