Walk through the Bible in a year and read some comments for each week.
Read MoreIt’s the day after Christmas. During Christmas, we spend this time remembering and celebrating the Lord coming to the world. Yet, instead of reading the Christmas story, I found myself continuing to read along in my daily study through the Bible. As I was reading the Bible on Christmas Eve, I came across an interesting…

We have reached the end of our reading through the Bible in one Year. I hope you were blessed by making it all the way through. I think it fitting to leave us where God leaves us in scripture. The last recorded words of Jesus Christ are found in the last chapter of Revelation. Revelation…

In this section of scripture, we cover quite a few different books. One of my favorites is the Book of Hebrews. This book is so rich from discussions on faith, true rest, true sacrifice, the discipline of God, to simply how much better Jesus is than any other way to righteousness, if any other way…
Read MoreAs we approach the end of our year through the Bible, it is Christmas time (if you started in the new year). The Christmas story is found in the gospels, especially detailed in the Gospel according to Luke. But, the Christmas message is found all throughout scripture. In Paul’s letter to the Ephesians he shares…
Read MoreAs we continue through Paul’s epistles, we come to the epistles to the Corinthians. Paul has a lot to say to the Corinthians.

Read MoreRomans 8:1 (NKJV) — 1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. What incredible words to read. If we are in Christ Jesus, there is no condemnation for anything. Paul is writing to the Romans…
Read MoreIn this week’s readings, we come to Paul’s letters to the Romans. I believe this book is the great summary of the Gospel message. Paul lays out salvation, grace, and how to be a Christian in this book. Paul starts out this letter making a strong point against salvation by works. We can’t be saved…
Read MoreIn this section of readings, we close out the Gospel of John and the Gospels as a whole. We have seen the death and resurrection of Jesus from four different viewpoints. We have read His life changing words and seen His heart and love for all people. In the Book of Acts, Luke continues from…
Read MoreTowards the end of John, just before His crucifixion, Jesus has some things to say to His disciples and also says a long prayer for them and all believers to come. In this dialogue, Jesus says something about His love for the disciples and for us. John 15:9 (NKJV) — As the Father loved Me, I…
Read MoreTowards the end the Gospel of Luke, we find Jesus’ disciples arguing over which one of them will be the greatest in the Kingdom. Importance is an alluring thing. People long to be important. We find this in the office. We find this in schools. We definitely find this in politics. But, unfortunately, we find…
