I love ancient literature and history- it's probably my favorite time period to study. And while some folks avoid the Old Testament, between my love of ancient lit and our Messianic leanings, I've read and studied it over and over. I'm currently reviewing two new books; Devotions in Genesis and Devotions in Exodus in a series by Nicole Hallbrooks Vaughn, titled Devotions from the Torah. These are thought provoking devotionals that delve deeply into the original Hebrew, historical context and major themes of the books I'll be doing a complete review in just a few weeks so check back on Dec 2!

Devotions from Genesis by Nicole Hallbrooks 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 Hallbrooks 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.
