Lesson 1: How Many Books in the Good Book?

Jesus is always the example we look towards for how to live life. One of the first stories recorded about Jesus shows us that Jesus took time to learn and memorize Scripture. Because of that, Jesus was able to use the verses he had memorized to fight off temptation! One of the ways we can be like Jesus and begin to store God’s Word in our heart, is by knowing what God has included in the Bible and where we can find it.
