Bible Verses You Can Use as Themes

October 6, 2018

First, can I say the most used phrase of this year and every year prior?…

HOW IS IT OCTOBER ALREADY AND WHERE DID SEPTEMBER GO? (where did the whole year go, for that matter)

I just…can’t believe how fast this year has gone by.

But anyway, before I start rambling on about how time goes by so fast and that I’m finally ready for cooler weather, let’s get on to the post! 🙂

As Christians, our beliefs are based on the Bible.

It’s our rock, our support, and our life guide. How could we go about life without it? We couldn’t.

As Christian writers, why should the Bible be any less to our craft? How can we incorporate God and the Bible on our writing process?

It takes a little digging and close attention to find verses that would be great as story inspiration, theme ideas, and more. Or maybe just good verses of encouragement if you feel discouraged writing your first draft.

Maybe I’ll do kind of a series on this, but for now, I’m bringing you some Bible verses you can use as themes for your books.
