Chasing History

For now, Chasing History is paused – it may return one day. Thank you for your understanding!

 

Chasing History is a link-up where we all gather to learn from His Stories. We look specifically at different girls in the Bible – and I would love for you to join us!

The Bible is old and written by many, but often I’ll be reading and each word jumps off the page and seems relevant to my life – written just for me. You too?

I especially love reading of girls in the Bible and the way God used them, their stories, and their lives to bring us Hope.

I think we’ll see that these women from so long ago? They’re just like us. Or perhaps, we’re just like them.

Join in by picking one of your favorite women in the Bible and writing about her. Do a little research, read the chapter(s) over again. Dig in deep or span out wide. Just learn.

And then come back and tell us all about her – and you. Share how God is using a woman’s story from long ago to challenge you, teach you, or encourage you. We’ll chase history together.

I hope you’ll join me! Pick whatever women you’re most interested in, or can I suggest – one you don’t know much about at all? I’ve listed a few suggestions for you below.

Eve (wife to Adam and mother of Cain, Able, and Seth)

Sarah (wife to Abraham and mother of Isaac)

Rebekah (wife to Isaac and mother of Jacob)

Tamar (wife of Judah and mother to Perez and Zerah)

Rahab (wife to Salmon and mother of Boaz)

Ruth (wife to Boaz and mother of Obed)

Bathsheba (wife to Uriah and David, mother of Solomon)

Mary (wife to Joseph, mother of Jesus)

Each of my posts are broken into sections – background information, her story, and how it applies to me (us). It doesn’t need to be long or fancy – just write what you feel comfortable with. This isn’t a bible study – it’s community coming together to talk about Him and the Stories He’s written. Let’s chase history together!
