Epic (Part 3): The Storyline Of The BibleSample

Ezra convinces the leaders of the people to return to obeying God. In their case, they had married women who worshipped other gods who distracted them from the worship of God. Because of their responsibility as both national and spiritual leaders, it was necessary for them to separate from these wives. We are not part of ancient Judah and are given different advice in 1 Corinthians 7:12-16. However, it is still wise to avoid close relationships with people who will distract us from God. As it says in 1 Corinthians 15:33, “Bad company corrupts good character.”

About this Plan

This is part three of a four part plan to read the books of the Bible that tell of the historical events. Although the Bible contains many stories, it is one epic story of God’s interactions with humanity. One day per week can be used to catch up on missed readings or for reflection. Notes are also included to assist with understanding.
