These four books of the Bible are also referred to as the “Gospels.” Gospel means “good news.” It’s the good news that God offers us salvation through his Son, Jesus Christ. The book of Mark, and the other 3 gospels, are the good news about Jesus and his kingdom.

Psalms is a book of poetry. Psalms is a collection of prayers and songs that God’s people have prayed and sung for thousands of years. There are different types of psalms. Some are psalms of praise and worship, some are psalms of people confessing sin, some are psalms of people crying out to God for help, and there are more types than just those.
Psalms teaches us true things about God. Psalms also has some prayers that we can pray to God ourselves. Don’t just read Psalms as the prayers other people prayed. Which Psalms can you read as your own prayers to God?

Psalm 100
A psalm. For giving grateful praise.
1 Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth.
2 Worship the Lord with gladness;
come before him with joyful songs.
3 Know that the Lord is God.
It is he who made us, and we are his[a];
we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.
4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving
and his courts with praise;
give thanks to him and praise his name.
5 For the Lord is good and his love endures forever;
his faithfulness continues through all generations.

1 Corinthians 13:1-7
13 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3 If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

The Romans Road
3:23: “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God”
6:23: “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in[a] Christ Jesus our Lord.”
5:8: “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”
10:9-10: “ If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.”
10:13: “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

Colossians 3:12-17
12 Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. 13 Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. 14 And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.
15 Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. 16 Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts. 17 And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
