You have made it one-third of the way through the Bible. 33%! Congratulations. We continue to read about David his week, and read one of the most famous David stories - Bathsheba and Uriah. Many, including David's own son, turn against him as a result of that particular sin. May God bless you in your reading this week!

Johnathan dies, David gains the throne, the ark of the covenant is brought to Jerusalem, and we learn that David's son, a man of peace, will be the one to build the Temple. Along the way we read many of David's prayers and songs (Psalms). As we approach the end of April, and a THIRD of the way through the Bible, we hope you are appreciating the time you are spending daily in God's word. We pray it is a special time and brings you closer to Jesus as the year continues.

As we approach 30% of the Bible completed, we read about David and Saul. We will see that David was not perfect, but was a man after God's own heart. Are we pursuing God's heart as we read, or are we checking off a box on our "to-do" list? Let's[ray that God stirs our hearts as we read this week, and that He shows us something that He has for us in our time with Him.

Can you believe we are 3 months through 2024? That means you have read about 25% of the Bible so far. How is it going? Does the story make more sense to you this way? We hope so. Many have told us of their excitement in reading the story and having a clearer understanding. That is great! Keep praying for clarity each day as you read. Let God show you His wonderful message that ties the entire bible into one amazing story!

It's going to be a big week. We will continue through most of Judges, read the book of Ruth, and start 1 Samuel. We will meet both Ruth and Sampson this week. Stories we are familiar with, for sure. But let's read them with fresh eyes, praying God will reveal something new to us this time!

We finish Joshua by the end of the week and start the first bit of Judges. The Book of Judges covers the time between the conquest described in the Book of Joshua and the establishment of a kingdom in the Books of Samuel, during which biblical judges served as temporary leaders. Keep up your reading. God has great insights in store for you as you continue to read His word.

We are more than 20% through the Bible. Great work! We will finish up Deuteronomy and dive right into Joshua. Think about this...it took us 2 and a half months to read through the first 5 books of the Bible...in Biblical times, they memorized the first 5 books by their teen years. We have work to do! ;o)

It's Week 10 of 52. We are approaching 20% of the Bible read. How is it going? Are you hearing from God? Are you starting off your reading praying to hear from God? Let's try that every day this weekend see if anything changes as we continue through Deuteronomy.

It's a new week. And this week we have an extra day, thanks to Leap Year. No reading is scheduled for February 29. We suggest you spend that day reflecting on what you have read so far this year, and pray that God will continue to show you His plan through your reading the rest of the year.

It's Week 8 out of 52. You are doing it! As we approach 15% we continue through Numbers and Leviticus. Aaron and Moses are the main characters this week. We will learn a lot about the Levites. Let's pray that the Lord speaks to us this week during our reading.

As we enter Week 7, we will be reading in the Book of Leviticus. Many rules are laid out in this Chapter. Rules we don't follow today. Rules we can't follow today. We can't even follow 10 (Commandments). So why are they all here if we are not bound to them today? Maybe to show us that we can't earn our way to Heaven by being good or doing works. We need Jesus!

10%! This past week we went by the 10% complete mark. We have heard the excitement in your voices as you tell us how the story comes to life. It all makes more sense this time right? Keep reading, and keep praying that God will show you His story in greater detail for the rest of the year!!

OK, so here is where we stand. If you are caught up as we start our 5th week, you have read more than 8% of the Bible already, and you are only 3 days away from reading God's word every day for an entire month! That is a great way to spend a month....let's do it again in February. This will be easy, it's a short month.

It's Week 4. Can you believe you have already read through more than 5% of the Bible in less than a month. If you stay consistent you can do this! Let's finish up Job and start in Exodus together!

It's Week 3 already! This week we start reading the Book of Job. We hope this is going well for you and that you are feeling excited about adding God's word into your daily life. Keep up the great work!

Well? How was that first week? Did it go by fast? Are you still on pace? Did you have it read the text to you on your way to work? Just a few questions as we start Week 2. How are you liking this plan? We hope it blesses you. It's only 1 week in, tell someone else about it. Share it and let's make God's Word our priority this year!

As we start off 2024, we will start our reading on Monday, January 1st, not today. Use today to finish your reading for this past year, to pray for God to speak to you and teach you in 2024, and to find the app on your phone. Then, on Monday, you can start the plan, and your reading of God's Word with us through 2024. If you would , please add a comment to this message, so we know who is participating this year. Good luck and may God bless you in the new year!
