Please be sure to read the novel before you go further. Otherwise, these lessons will spoil the story for you. I would recommend reading the novel all the way through for the story, then reading each chapter again, more as a study, as we talk about them.

Let's talk about how God's Word is alive and active, and what that means. I'll also explain how to form a cadre (a group with deep Christian community) and how this would benefit you.

In the next video, we'll start getting to know the Scriptures that are used or alluded to in the novel.

Scriptures referred to in this video:
Hebrews 4:12
II Timothy 3:16 (I think I said I Timothy, sorry)
Isaiah 55:11
Psalm 119:11
Psalm 119:105
Psalm 139

Scriptures you should look up (and write out) before the next lesson:
Isaiah 61:1-3
Isaiah 43:18-19
I Thessalonians 5:18
Psalm 45:13
Proverbs 3:5, 6

When you write about them in your workbook or a journal, I'd recommend writing the verse out -- it will help you get it into your heart, especially if you say it out loud as you're writing. If you can, spend a few minutes asking God to show you what HE wants you to see in that verse right now, today. Write it down. Leave space to write about the verse when we get to that place in the story. You'll understand what I mean when we get there. For now, just leave space. If I were doing this in a journal, I would personally use a page for each Scripture or passage.

The pinterest page for this book. https://www.pinterest.com/alyc....ekayr/now-it-will-sp It's not very well organized (okay, not organized at all -- I can either write or organize Pinterest pages, but not both), but it has links to articles related to the topics in Now It Will Spring Forth and also lots of pictures of the places in Santa Barbara where this book takes place. If you find links that you think should be there, please let me know so I can add them.

If you want to share anything about the verses, about anything we've talked about, your own related experiences, or questions for me, please do so in the comments below. Please remember to keep your remarks respectful and uplifting. I'd love to hear your thoughts and insights within those parameters. The more you share, the better this study will be for all of us!

Please note that if you use any of my Amazon links, I may receive a small referral fee. This does not affect what you pay and it's only a small amount, but it sure adds up. At this point, it's paying for about one day's meals, so you're really helping me out. I appreciate your support!
