Day 22-25 With the Literary ESV

In the last few days I started in Malachi and then passed 400 years with the flick of a finger as I moved from the Old Testament into the New. The Gospels then piled up one after another to invade my senses with the sights and sounds of Israel lost and struggling to recognize a savior standing right in front of them.

And there are always related issues of personal sin or general unbelief in our life. But what if I could find a person in scripture who was transformed against all of these odds and more? Would you like to know what makes the difference?
