Welcome to our new Bible Reading Plan for 2020! This plan goes from Genesis to Revelation. However, this will not cover every single chapter and verse. This will cover the major stories as they fit within the bigger story in God's love letter to his church. However, if you desire to read more, we encourage you to do so.
Keep the following tips in mind as you read your Bible:
1. Pray—Ask God to help you understand and believe what you are about to read.
2. Think—For example: What new thing did I learn? What puzzles me? How does this passage fit into the big story of the Bible? What does it teach about God and his plans? Is there a reason to praise God? A promise to claim? An example to follow? A sin to avoid? A command to obey? An idea for loving God or my neighbor? A prayer to pray?
3. Pray—Talk to God about what you read.
4. Share—Tell your community group one thing that you learned. Or ask them one question about what you read.
