INTRODUCTION: I absolutely LOVE reading the Bible which has some super amazing stories that I’ve read multiple times. Join me as together we read and discuss some favs I’ve picked-out, including discovering how they relate to our lives today. Plus, get help with understanding vocabulary, context and more. This story I call "Fired-Up," as it's a tale of 3 young men facing the fire, literally, which we all may have to do, figuratively and even literally, at some point in our lives. It's these moments we may express in English as "having our backs against the wall" or "the whole world against us." Invite a friend or bring the fam, as we dive-in, and see what it's all about.
