Learning and applying Scripture
so you can

Grow Daily

Have you ever wondered whether the Bible
is applicable to your life?

The Bible is God’s story and we all have a part to play in it. 
Start reading the Bible, establish a relationship with God, and allow Him to reveal your role in His story.

You’ll find His Word is not just another book of interesting facts and stories with morals,
but a place you can access GOD’S PURPOSE and TRANSFORMING POWER on your journey through life!

This has been my experience and this experience has lead me to want to share my personal journal.  My aim in sharing this Scriptural Journal & Commentary is to help provide clarification and added thought as you read Scripture. 

The CHAPTER pages are meant to be used as a reference as you are reading through the Bible, while
APPLICATION pages are meant to provide encouragement and direction on various topics of interest.  

This Journal offers one interpretation of Scriptural passages with numerous applications and varying perspectives.
You may not agree with every interpretation included in the SJC, but it is my hope that if you come across questions or concerns, you pray about it and use the SJC to start a discussion.

And while you’re reading the Bible, remember…

Everything written in Scripture is 100% accurate because it is God’s Word, inspired by God Himself and He is faithful to His Word.
Whether you’re reading accounts written thousands of years ago that can be confirmed with other historical sources, or facts proven by scientific evidence, or Biblical prophecies that have already come true —
you can place your trust in God’s Word!

All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness
(2 Timothy 3:16)

This website also provides summaries and commentaries on life issues. Find the topic that best relates to your interest and read what the Bible has to say about it, along with commentaries from others!

Underlying truths found in Scriptural passages can be extrapolated for daily application and perspective on issues. Let the comments and selection of verses give you something to consider regarding each issue.

If you would like to know more about what lead to the development of this Scriptural Journal, check out My Journey.

In this world of relative truth, the baseline of truth found in Scripture doesn’t change like the latest fad and this is life-changing! The world’s views can result in you realizing that you have hit a dead end in your quest for answers to questions like:

  • Why am I here? 

  • How do I survive in this world? 

  • What is expected of me?

Not believing in a loving God who is involved in your life will make this world a dark and difficult place to navigate.

God’s Word has the answers! If you are not already a follower of Christ desiring purpose and direction in your life as outlined in His Word, then a good starting point is in the Way Forward.
