1 Chronicles 9:20

Written following their return from exile, Chronicles is a theological retelling of Israel's monarchial history.

September – No complicated content, just a monthly chronological journey through the Bible. The Bible isn’t arranged in the order events happened; it’s usually organized by genre. September follows God’s people through exile, restoration, and renewal before arriving at the long-awaited coming of Jesus. You’ll journey through Daniel, Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther, and the prophets, watching God remain faithful to His promises through every season. The month concludes with the opening chapters of the Gospels, where centuries of anticipation give way to the arrival of Christ and the beginning of the New Testament story.
