Bible Reading Challenge

Studies have shown that the single most powerful catalyst for spiritual growth is personal Bible study and reflection. Getting our minds and hearts into God’s Word changes us! I know it has changed me! Do you want to be better this next year than last? Then take this challenge with me:

The Passion: To pursue God.

The Challenge: To read through God’s Word.


1. Big Goal: Read the Whole Bible Chronologically in a Year

  • Read in both the Old and New Testaments each day.
  • Follow a Bible Reading Plan, such as the Chronological Bible Plan.
  • Option: Add one Psalm and one Proverb to your daily reading (a suggestion from Billy Graham).

2. Smaller Goal: Read the New Testament, Proverbs, and Psalms in One Year


The Result: Changed Lives

When we hear and apply what God reveals to us through His Word, our lives are transformed. Commit to a plan and see the difference it makes in your relationship with God.
