Welcome back. Since starting my daily Biblical Reflections project at the beginning of 2020, I've been hoping in the longer term future to produce all my material in a form that is divided by chapter and is easily accessible, usable, and searchable to people following any Bible reading program, or none at all. Perhaps people just want to dip into a particular part of scripture and see what commentary there is on it.
Now, a few months ago I was contacted by Dean Montgomery of YetAnotherSermon.host. He has a fantastic service which makes the hosting of sermons and Christian talks very easy. And so I've been gradually uploading old lectures and other material on there. And in the last few days, he has uploaded all of my Biblical Reflections from 2020.
He's put in an awful lot of work and been incredibly helpful. And the amount of time that he's put into this has been such a blessing. So thank you so much to Dean.
If you want now to access any of my material, you can see it divided by chapter. It's very easy to search. It's in a very attractive visual format.
You can click on it in a single screen and see every single one of the chapters. And also search by topic and particular series. Now, this is to be found at audio.alastairadversaria.com. Thank you to everyone who has supported my work to this point.
I'm looking forward to getting further into the Book of Proverbs, which I've been enjoying thoroughly to this point. It's always been one of my favorite books. And I'm looking forward to the rest of 2021.
It is a lot less stressful than 2020, not having to do the two Biblical Reflections each day. Having done the New Testament Reflections already, apart from a few in 1st and 2nd Timothy and Titus, it means that I'm a lot more relaxed. I'm able to work on the Old Testament Reflections and have a bit more time to catch up on a great backlog of work that had built up last year.
I have a number of other projects on the horizon at the moment. Some exciting possibilities in the works. Please pray for my continued work.
And if you would like to support my work in any way, please consider doing so on Patreon or PayPal. The links are below. God bless and thank you so much for continuing to listen.
It's really an encouragement and a blessing to work through Scripture with other people.
