Have you read through the entire Bible? It sounds like a daunting task, but also a great goal for the coming year.
It’s been a while since I journeyed from cover to cover in the Scriptures, and I’m eager to do this again. Plus, a group of inspiring friends has decided to do this together. Accountability and encouragement count for plenty, when it comes to approaching all 66 books in God’s Holy Word.
Our group is following a plan that takes us through the Bible chronologically, with an eye towards increased understanding of God’s hand in human history. We’re using our own adaptation of a chronological Bible reading plan we found online.
This is an ambitious goal. It means reading multiple chapters of Scripture each day. Some days, that may come easily. Other days, it may prove to be more challenging. But God promises to meet us in His Word.
“So shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it.” (Isaiah 55:11, ESV)
Want to join us?
Pick your translation. Read the Bible in printed book form, electronically, or even in audio format. Yes, you can listen to the Bible in a live feed, podcast, CD, or other techy formats, if you want.
Can’t wait to see what we learn along the way!
And may God open our minds to understand His Word. (See Luke 24:45.)
