"It is a good rule, after reading a new book, never to allow yourself another new one till you have read an old one in between. If that is too much for you, you should at least read one old one to every three new ones." - CS Lewis

In December of 1968, the crew of Apollo 8 became the first humans to orbit the moon. As the world watched earth come into view, the astronauts shared the timeless words of Genesis 1: "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth." #Apollo8 #NASA #Scripture

Today in 1850 a snow storm drove fifteen year old Charles Spurgeon inside of the Primitive Methodist Chapel in Colchester, England. There he was urged to look to Christ for salvation. He was converted. Have you looked to Jesus by faith? One look is all that is required.

John 3:16, Hebrews 11:11, Psalm 23. They spring to mind without using any of the words in them thanks to a uniform system of numbering for chapters and verses. But Scripture wasn’t originally written this way.

Here’s how your Bible came to have chapter and verse numbers.🧵1/8

In Thomas Cole's 'Expulsion from the Garden of Eden,' the artist depicts the stark contrast of the Garden with the harsh reality of their expulsion due to sin. The composition is divided in half to drive home this contrast between good and evil, paradise and the fallen world.

As Christians, we benefit greatly from the ministry of our fellow believers – this includes those who lived long before our time. Thanks to their preserved writings, we can all learn from pastors, authors, and theologians from throughout church history.
