From the Throne offers Scripture-centered reflection and encouragement while preserving the distinct writings of Betty Jo Hardy and Anne Barkley.
Scripture · Reflection · Encouragement
Each devotional invites readers to pause with Scripture, reflect on God’s truth, and carry that encouragement into daily life. Email brings new messages to readers; this website keeps the complete public archive available for the years ahead.

Anne Barkley continues From the Throne through new devotionals. Her messages are clearly attributed to her and added to the same public archive without altering or blending Betty Jo’s work.
Read Anne’s devotionalsWhy preserve an archive
The archive keeps readable devotional text, publication details, author attribution, and—when available—a preserved view of the original email design together in one place.
Historical records remain distinct from new work. Dates, titles, punctuation, capitalization, Scripture quotations, and author attribution are preserved rather than silently rewritten.
