GOOD AFTERNOON, SIBLINGS! Today’s readings are Job 1-4 Rabbit Trails About this book: •We do not know who wrote Job. There are plenty of speculations. •Job is one of the oldest books in the Bible, written before the Torah (Also called the Pentateuch for all y’all Greekies out there😉) was given. •Categorically wise, Job is […]
GOOD MORNING SIBLINGS! Today’s readings are Job 5-7 Rabbit Trails My notes are brief today, some days are like that. Beginning our reading…. Eliphaz wrongly assumed that Job had committed some secret sin against YHWH and that is where his advice stems from. While that assumption wasn’t an accurate one, we still see him detail […]
GOOD MORNING, SIBLINGS! Today’s readings are Job 8-10 Rabbit Trails 🌿Bildad rebukes Job today, telling him that if he would earnestly seek YHWH and if he had of been pure and upright YHWH would be blessing him instead of afflicting him. Sidenote: this sounds a lot like the prosperity gospel to me. 🌿It is difficult […]
GOOD MORNING SIBLINGS! Today’s reading is Job 11-13 Rabbit Trails 🌿This is reading as a court case, going back and forth, to and fro. We can’t help but feel the frustration of Job in reading it and so I suggest we all pause a moment and pray for shalom and insight, guidance by the Holy […]
GOOD MORNING SIBLINGS! Today we read Job 14-16 Hang in there, we’re almost halfway done! Rabbit Trails 🌿Today I want to change the question a bit.

Good Morning Siblings! Today’s Readings are Job 17-20 Rabbit Trails In today’s reading, one sentence brought tears to my eyes: Then Job answered and said: “How long will you torment me and break me in pieces with words?” Job 19:2 I doubt there exists among us anyone who has not been broken into pieces with […]
GOOD MORNING SIBLINGS! Today’s readings are Job 24-28 Rabbit Trails We are flying through four chapters of Job today and I know a lot of us are glad it goes quickly. Job is one of those books, similar to Leviticus and Revelation, that requires deeper level rumination in order to be able to soak all […]
GOOD MORNING, SIBLINGS! Today’s readings are Job 21-23 Rabbit trails Disclaimer: I’m getting back into the groove of things after being away on a family trip. That, combined with the book of Job in and of itself has my notes a bit shorter today. 🌿Job’s frustration with his friends is understandable and evident in our […]
Good morning, siblings! Today’s readings are Job 29-31 Rabbit Trails Ricky and I wrote these notes together so if the writing style seems to switch from mine to another at points that is why. 🌿We immediately find Job reminiscing about the former blessings and societal status he used to have (Job 29: 2-6) and how […]
Good Morning Siblings! Today’s readings are Job 32-34 Rabbit Trails 🌿Today we see a new person, Elihu, come on the scene and it appears he has been there all along, remaining silent. The text tells us that he is much younger than all the others so perhaps that is why he was not mentioned among […]
Good Morning, Siblings! Today’s readings are Job 35-37 We’re entering the home stretch. Only two more days until we start Psalms so let us try to finish Job strong.

GOOD MORNING, SIBLINGS! Today’s readings are Job 38-39 Rabbit Trails 🌿Today in Job the Father appears – and reveals Himself in ways that many of us may not have considered. I want to remind you that in the original Hebrew, we did not see the all caps LORD most of our Bibles show us, but […]
Hello, Siblings! Today’s readings are Job 40-42 The Father has blessed me with an opportunity to do some good today so my notes are short again. Tomorrow we begin Psalms! We have a wonderful ending today, that leaves my heart full! 🌿In our ending today we see the end, or rather the fruit of the […]
