TAKE FIVE | Mini-Retreat - The Gift of Scripture
My relationship with Scripture varies throughout the year. This year I really dug into an advent devotional. It was refreshing. Also, about every three years, I switch my translation to keep helping me see the Scriptures in a fresh way. I also like changing my way of digesting the Scriptures. I most enjoy the S.O.A.P. method of journaling from The Divine Mentor by Cordiero, but also enjoy the headier Tabletalk devotional from Ligonier ministries in certain seasons.
