James 4:8English Standard Version (ESV)
8 Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you.
Reading the Bible is one of the best ways to draw closer to God. If you are like I was then reading the Bible probably feels out of reach. You may have tried and said, "It just doesn't make sense." or "I cannot get into it." or "I don't have time." or maybe even "I'm not sure I believe everything in the Bible. I'll just read this part."
These all sound very similar to the excused we hear when EH'ing someone to join F3. That is what they are afterall. Excuses.
Join me again this year for another journey through the scriptures. I personally use the Daily Audio Bible Podcast because it is easy. You will travel through the scriptures a little each day from Jan 1 to Dec 31. The daily format flows through the Old Testament, New Testament, Psalms, and Proverbs. After the reading (approx 15 mins) explanation of the passage is provided for clarity.
You can listen while you commute, run, or while you sit and feverishly take notes. It's up to you.
2018 will be my 16th trip through the Bible. I'm not perfect. I miss days. I catch up. But I wouldn't miss it.
I challenge you to try the journey with me for a month. You will not regret it.
