    Christ's Object Lessons

    I read Christ’s Object Lessons last year. What a wonderful book! It’s an expose on the parables of Jesus. From the parable of the sower, to the lost coin, to the prodigal son, to the Good Samaritan, it’s all in there. Author Ellen White does an exceptional job of highlighting and explaining the key points of each parable.

    I was so blessed by reading this book, and I’m sure you will be too. You can purchase a printed copy of the book (from Amazon – also available on Kindle, the ABC, Google Shopping, etc.), but it’s also available online for free! Below are the different ways you can access this gem of a book for no cost.

    Thoughts from the Mount of Blessing

    I recently finished reading Thoughts from the Mount of Blessing. I absolutely loved this book! It was such a blessing to read. Although I really like Steps to Christ (read my blog post here), I like this book even more. Thoughts from the Mount of Blessing covers the Beatitudes and Jesus’s Sermon on the Mount. This book is about 150 pages, so it’s a short read but packed full of amazing things. I HIGHLY recommend this book!

    You can order a hard copy of Thoughts from the Mount of Blessing on Amazon (also available on Kindle), the ABC, Google Shopping and other bookstores, but it is also available for free! See below for how you can get a free copy of this incredible book.

    Steps to Christ

    I finished reading Steps to Christ a few weeks ago. It was actually the second time I’ve read this classic, and it never gets old! It is such a wonderful book. Steps to Christ has been published in over 150 languages, and there are tens of millions of copies worldwide (if not more!). Like so many other people around the world, I have been so blessed by this book and have been drawn closer to Jesus Christ by reading it. I highly recommend this book! It’s a short and sweet read – the copy I read is less than 100 pages (editions with larger font and/or photos are of course longer).

    You can order a hard copy of Steps to Christ on Amazon (also available on Kindle), It Is Written (which also offers an audiobook), the ABC, Google Shopping and other bookstores, but it is also available for free! See below for how you can get a free copy of this amazing book.

    The Holy Bible

     

    The first book profiled in our Reading Corner just had to be the Holy Bible! There is no greater book ever written! We can’t even begin to feature the glories of the Bible in just one blog post, so instead we’ll focus on online and mobile Bible resources that are available for free. These resources feature many versions of the Bible, but we recommend the New King James Version (NKJV). It’s accurate and maintains the legacy of the King James Version, but without the thee’s and thou’s.
    Reading the Bible online:
    Biblegateway is our go-to website for reading the Bible online. It’s free and includes keyword search and many other great features.
    Mobile Apps:
    We love the YouVersion Bible app. It’s free and is available for Android, iPhone, Windows, and Blackberry. This app has a Verse of the Day, and includes archives of previous Verses of the Day. You can sort the books of the Bible alphabetically or in the standard order. Once you select a book, you can jump to a specific chapter, and then specific verse. One feature that we particularly love about the YouVersion app is that you can highlight a specific verse you’re reading (or multiple verses) and then share the verse via any other app you have (text message, email, Twitter, etc.) or copy the verse directly to the clipboard.
