Hello,

It’s an amazing week. We had my roommates 79th Birthday and all went well. Also this week is the start of year 2 of Daily Bible Trivia. It’s been a fun year for me. Definitely keeping me in the word. Also keeping me busy. I’m especially grateful for all of you who visit follow and comment. Your suggestions are always welcome.

Since this is the second year the topic for this week is Second Chances. People who God gave a second chance to. For Believers that is good news indeed.   God will not cast you out for one mistake however large. The question format will be a description of the Bible character. The answer will be the name of that person.

A blessed and prosperous New Year to all of you and yours.
