How this collection was chosen

Read with care

They span prayers, wisdom, Gospel narrative, and letters. Read the chapter linked with each one to learn why those words appear there.

John 11:35 is very short, but the surrounding account of Lazarus explains the grief behind it.

How to use these passages

Memorize the reference with the wording so you can find the verse again. Then read a few verses on either side. Some of the shortest lines carry a meaning that becomes clear only within their story or letter.
