Bible Reading Program

During 2010 we are encouraging everyone to read through the New Testament again together.
Click here for a suggested Bible reading plan for you to follow and reflect on.

Use the following devotional format aimed at hearing from God and responding to his leading:

Scripture – write out a verse or two that speak specifically to you today. Observation – make a note of what you observe in the text. Application – write out how God’s Word applies to your life. Prayer – write out a prayer of response to what God has said to you.

You can do this by yourself, with your family, with some friends or as part of your Life Group. As you make your time with God and his Word the priority of your day, you will experience a tangible ‘washing of the Word’ in your heart and life.

When tempted by the devil Jesus quoted an Old Testament Scripture and said, “People need more than bread for their life; they must feed on every word of God (Matt.4:4. NLT).” God’s Word, as revealed in the Bible, is to be our ‘daily bread’. In the same way that we need food every day to be healthy and strong so we need to daily feed upon God’s Word to us. Then as we apply it to our lives we are adding exercise to healthy food, which results in good health and spiritual fitness.

Imagine the difference in your life if you could feed daily on the wisdom of the ages! God’s words are alive and powerful, able to not only feed your soul, but to renew your thinking and to give you insight for every aspect of your life and ministry.

We would like to challenge you to make a commitment to reading through the entire New Testament during the coming year. We’ll be doing this as a church family and we believe it will be a catalyst to God doing some incredible things in our lives and our church.

As each of us establishes the habit of hearing and applying God’s Word every day, we will experience the joy of knowing God better and of becoming healthy and strong disciples of Jesus Christ.
