PDF Bibles, interstitial journaling and some questions.

Welcome back and welcome to Substack.

I wasn't sure what platform was best for this newsletter but after someone requested an RSS feed, I decided to move to substack for now (especially as I can potentially start a podcast here too)!

And whatever you do in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

This week I'm featuring some PDF Bible. These can be a fantastic addition to a note taking app like obsidian or notion. You can highlight and write in the margins and then send a page over to your notes system.

This is a free PDF bible in WEB, KJV and NET translations.
