Our preacher often chooses a sermon text from what he refers to as the "Hebrew Bible" and what many people commonly call the Old Testament. It's interesting to study the parallels between the sacrificial system established in the Old Testament and the salvation offered through Jesus Christ.
Recently I've been reading from two a new devotional book series by Nicole Halbrooks Vaughn -- Devotions from the Torah. My digital copies off the books have many flagged pages, and I've written down a ton of inspiring quotes to ponder over and cling to. I'll be sharing more about Devotions from Genesis and Devotions from Exodus, Part One over the next few weeks. In the meantime, I'm thrilled to be part of a giveaway that includes those two books (and other fabulous resources).

Devotions from Genesis by Nicole Halbrooks Vaughn
See for yourself how Genesis, the book of beginnings, is not just ancient history and that the Word of God is still alive and timeless. Nicole Vaughn’s Devotions from Genesis will take you on a journey from the garden of Eden to the courts of Pharaoh in Egypt, allowing you to see your own hurts, struggles, and joys through the lives of patriarchs from Adam to Joseph. You will gain insight into your heart and more importantly, insight into the very heart of God. One day at a time, you will be reminded that you are not alone with these Devotions from Genesis.
Devotions from Exodus Part One by Nicole Halbrooks Vaughn
Devotions From Exodus Part One will take you from the bondage of the children of Israel to their freedom. The children of Israel were set free from their bondage in Egypt, and they had to learn how to live in this new freedom. As you study through these first twenty chapters of Exodus, you will see that after God delivered the children of Israel out of Egypt, he still had to get Egypt out of them. Our deliverance in Christ is no different. God delivers us from the world, but he still has to get the world out of us. We, like the Israelites, are learning to live in this freedom.
