About this ebook
*This 52-week guide through the heart of Scripture is designed so that you can start it at any point in the year.
All of Scripture is important and meaningful, but there are certain passages throughout the 66 books that make up our Bible which are especially helpful for understanding and becoming grounded in God's truth.
In The Heart of the Bible, Pastor John MacArthur shares a selection of verses that he believes are most significant as he helps you unpack their meaning and encourages you to memorize them—one per week for a full year.
Written in a devotional style, each verse—taken from both the Old and New Testaments—is followed by John MacArthur’s thoughts and comments, giving you a deeper understanding of the passages and their importance to Christians. The verses focus on the nature of the Bible, God, salvation, and discipleship, and are categorized topically.
Some of the topics covered are:
- Knowing and trusting our great God.
- What happened at the cross.
- Accepting God’s salvation.
- Living worthy of our calling.
- What it means to follow Jesus.
These treasured pieces of Scripture are not just meant to be read—they’re meant to be savored, repeated, meditated on, and memorized. Open your heart to God’s Word and you will be transformed.
