(E30) Powerful Literary Devices: Simile

Have you ever seen a video (or a photograph) that made an illustration in the Bible come alive? This week, I share how a BBC video of an Alpine Ibex brought a simile from Psalm 18 (and Habakkuk 3) to life. A simile is a powerful literary tool that turns abstract concepts into concrete illustrations through comparison. The Bible is filled with them, because they communicate with a rich vividness that literal language cannot.

(E28) Never Lose Your Wonder

Has the message of the gospel become commonplace to you? Have you lost the sense of wonder and amazement at the grace of God in Christ? When you read a passage of Scripture, hear a Christ-exalting sermon, or sing a worship song that describes who Jesus is and what He has done, does it warm your heart and stir your affection for Him anew? May what you learn from Jeremiah 32 stoke your affection for Christ today.
