so as im reading 111 pages in my theology book- something new popped out. I always seem to think of Bible stories as applicable lessons from everyday men who were sinners like me....but for some reason those men and writers of the Bible never seemed like real.
Moses-political leader
Joshua-military leader
David-shepherd
Solomon-king
Amos-herdsman and grower of sycamore figs
Daniel-Prime minister
Matthew-tax collector
Luke-medical doctor
Paul-rabbi
Peter-fisherman
are just some....but look at the diversity of their vocations. We get perspective from all around. And these men wrote from actual continents....like Asia, Africa, and Europe!!! Jeremiah wrote from Egypt in Africa...Africa....like I went to Kenya....like that Africa and John wrote as a banished person on the island of Patmos and Paul wrote FIVE books in prison. Holy Moly!
Im just super stoked!
