Next in Our Bible Reading Plan: The Book of James

Join us as we continue our journey through the New Testament! Up next in our Bible reading plan is the Book of James—a powerful and practical guide to living a Christ-centered life.

Written by James, the brother of Jesus, this letter challenges us to stand firm in trials, control our words, and walk in humility before the Lord. James reminds us that true faith is demonstrated through faithful works, calling us to live out what we believe.

📖 How It Works:

• We read one chapter per day

• Engage in discussion and reflection together

We’d love for you to read along with us and grow together in faith!

As we continue diving into God’s Word, we turn to the book of Hebrews—a powerful letter that points us to the supremacy of Jesus Christ. Hebrews reminds us that Jesus is greater than anything or anyone that came before Him. He is our perfect High Priest, our ultimate Sacrifice, and the fulfillment of God’s promises.

This book challenges us to hold fast to our faith, to trust in the work of Christ, and to run the race set before us with perseverance. Let’s read together and be encouraged to fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith! 🙌

As we continue our journey through Scripture, we turn to the short yet powerful letter of Philemon. Written by the Apostle Paul, this book provides a beautiful example of forgiveness and reconciliation.

Paul appeals to Philemon to forgive his servant Onesimus, who had stolen from him and run away. But now, Onesimus is more than just a servant—he is a brother in Christ. This letter challenges us to see how Jesus reorients our relationships, calling us to extend grace, love, and unity to all people.

Let’s read together and reflect on how Christ’s love shapes the way we forgive!

Join Us for a Daily Study of the New Testament – Next: Titus

We are continuing our daily journey through the New Testament, one chapter at a time, and our next stop is the book of Titus.

The last of the pastoral epistles, Titus was written to guide and support the establishment of elders and churches on the island of Crete. Paul’s letter to Titus encourages us to embrace both right beliefs through sound doctrine and right behavior through godliness.

Titus 3:1 reminds believers to “be ready for every good work,” and in doing so, we reflect the “goodness and lovingkindness of God our Savior” (Titus 3:4). As we dive into this short but impactful book, we’ll be challenged to live out our faith in practical ways, showing God’s love to the world.

Join us as we read through the book of Titus together, one chapter a day. Click the link below to join the discussion group and read along with others.

Let’s be encouraged to live out our faith with integrity, good works, and godliness, just as Titus was called to lead the believers of Crete.

In 2 Timothy 4:7, Paul shares a challenge we can all embrace: “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.” This study will inspire and strengthen us to live with the same perseverance and commitment in our own lives.
