Welcome to a year in the Bible with daily grace. The Bible tells one big story of

that the tone of this book is a little bit more

somber than some of the other letters

that we've read so far.

Paul is writing this book from prison and he is reminding Timothy that though

he may be bound in prison with chains, God's word is not bound with him. God's word is never limited or bound or in chains.
