Building My Personal Cross-Reference Library in Obsidian
Several years ago, we had a guest minister come to our church. I don’t recall the specifics of his overall message, but I do remember one particular piece of advice he gave that has stuck with me.
He told us that we start writing the verses that our Pastor preached on in the margins of our Bible, so we could see how they linked together when studying them ourselves. If you’re familiar with those chain reference Bibles that have the the center column to look up related verses, this is basically building a personal version of that.
So when I first saw a demo of how backlinks in apps like Roam Research and Obsidian worked, I immediately wondered if those apps would allow me to build a digital version of this for myself.
In this post, I want to show you how I use Obsidian to create my own cross-reference library from sermon notes. And if you’d rather watch me do it, here’s a video:
