How
many of you know who Perez was or the story concerning his
conception/birth? I would not have recognized his name until learning
about him recently in our Wednesday Bible Study. . . I was so amazed
when I learned who he was and how he came into this world that it got me
thinking. . .
I've been in church my whole life, graduated from a Christian High School and yet there is SO much of the Bible that I've just skimmed over and amazing details I never knew were there until I slowed down and took time to really study what I was reading. To many, the Old Testament seems to be dry and just a compilation of interesting stories that have nothing to do with the New Testament. But oh, my goodness is that ever wrong! Since I get to learn from the best Bible teacher there is every week (a.k.a. my husband :) I thought maybe I should share what I'm learning with you. So, come on and have a little fun. Who knows . . . you might learn something amazing! Answer will be posted in Friday's blog.
