The Word of God

Here at the start of 2010, I'd like to challenge everyone to take time to read or listen through the entire Bible in one year. Many in our church family are accepting this challenge by using the month of January to listen through the New Testament on CD or mp3's. Listening just 45 minutes per day will take you through the New Testament. Most of us can find that kind of time when we're driving, or during lunch, or while exercising, etc. If 45 minutes is too much, dropping down to just 30 minutes per day will still get you through the New Testament before the end of February. Why not take the challenge? 

The Apostle Peter tells us we were "born again through the living and enduring word of God" (1 Peter 1:23). It is also through God's Word that we discover many practical day to day aspects of God's will for our lives. God's Word will renew and strengthen your soul, something we all need through trials and difficulties in life. Once again, let me encourage you to fall in love anew with God's Word in 2010.

If there is some blessing from your time in the Word this year, please share it. You can use the "comment" section below. It will be an encouragement to others!
