Top Posts for 2013

These are the six top posts and pages in 2013–see if you missed any of them:

Top Posts Book cover for 'The Story, NIV'

‘The Story, NIV’ takes you through the Bible’s grand story

  1. Download The Story: This was by far the most popular page in 2013, with over 4,000 downloads of “The Story: Personal Journal & Discussion Guide” in 2013!
  2. Telescoped Genealogies: Was Rahab the Mother of Boaz? It’s not as straightforward as one might think because Matthew lists 5 generations for the 366 years between Rahab and David.(This late 2012 post continues to receive visits every week.)
  3. Who are “the Righteous” in Psalms & Proverbs? The Bible says no one is righteous, so to whom are the Psalms and Proverbs referring when they talk about the righteous?
  4. Abraham, Isaac & Child Sacrifice. Why did God ask Abraham to sacrifice Isaac? Was this child sacrifice? What possible reasons could God have had for this? Are there any lessons for us today?
  5. Did Joshua Cause Leap Years? Did Joshua cause leap years when he prayed for the sun to stop, or does something other than Joshua cause leap years? Leap years & tropical years explained.
  6. How to Choose Discussion Questions. How do you choose discussion questions from Bible study workbooks in a way that allows you to discuss a week’s worth of homework within the allotted time?

(By the way, I deleted the post from earlier today that was a preview of my article, “Don’t Judge Me, I’m Childless,” over at Today’s Christian Woman because it turned out to be available to only subscribers. If you’re a subscriber or would like to consider subscribing to this fabulous on-line magazine, click here to read ways we can minister to the childless. TCW has got a deal going where a year’s subscription–52 issues–is only $9.95 and comes with a $10 gift certificate to their store.)
