       A lot of us commute into work. Whether that is twenty or thirty minutes a day, that time really adds up over time if you think about it. Let’s say it’s twenty minutes a day. Well, in a week that amounts to 1 hour, 40 minutes. Quite a lot of time there. About the time of a typical movie. That being the case, that’s a lot of time that we can take to do something productive. That productive thing may work for our enjoyment. Here are three things I suggest you could do with that time. First, maybe use to it listen to the Bible? There are so many audio versions of the Bible these days. In fact, I would venture to say that most of the popular Bible translations have an audio version. And on top of that, when you listen to a different version, you can pick up things you hadn’t noticed before. The same passage phrased in a different way can shed new insight. Easier versions of the Bible to understand can also give deeper meaning. You are not distracted by all the language specific to the readers of the time, but things have been presented in a way that makes more sense to us nowadays in American culture.
