About the book

100 Roots in Scripture at a glance

A hundred verses you already love — with the roots showing.

A hundred instructions from Scripture, each one taken back to the language it was written in, one word at a time. They are gathered around five concerns — love, courage, overcoming, triumph, and walking with the Lord — and ordered by what people actually reach for, so anxiety arrives early and the first commandment arrives last.

Every principle does the same three things. It gives you the word underneath: what the Hebrew or Greek actually says. It puts the verse back in the paragraph it came out of, because a verse quoted alone is a sentence with its reasons removed. And it keeps the complication worth keeping — the difficulty, the disputed reading, the meaning that takes another minute.

No Hebrew or Greek required. Each word is printed in its own script, transliterated so you can say it, and explained in plain English. Every reference is checked against the King James text, word by word.

The five concerns the hundred are gathered around:

  • Love
  • Courage
  • Overcoming
  • Triumph
  • Walking with the Lord
