Geocache Description:


The original goal of the Bible Trivia Series was to bring people to check out churches in the area. With the exception of a few, the churches didn't seem interested in having a cache on their property. So I found some unused trails to start putting caches on.

The book of Ezra is the 15th book for Old Testament.  It picks up where 2 Chronicles leaves off.

To make the final coordinates start with the posted coordinates.
