About the Bible Challenge

Hebrews 4:12 tells us: “For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Reading the Old and New Testament concurrently is a great way to understand the living Word of God, which is His message to us. This Bible Challenge is based upon the YouVersion Old Testament and New Testament Bible in a Year Plan and will allow you to read through the entire Bible in one year.

The goal of the One Year Bible Plan is to provide enough framework to daily Bible reading that personal reading becomes an enjoyable, manageable part of your day. To help you in making Bible reading part of your daily routine, we’ve provided the resources below.

Sign up for the “Daily Post” to have Bible Challenge resources delivered to your inbox and be encouraged by the work of the Lord in the lives of His people!

With so many of us reading through the same Bible reading schedule, why not make the Word of God part of our fellowship with one another? Rather than focusing our conversations merely on our families, health, or favorite sports teams, let’s remind one another to share what we have read in and are learning from The One Year Bible Plan. What a refreshing way to experience true biblical fellowship!

Consider asking family members, friends, fellow churchgoers, or even co-workers to join you on this life-changing journey. To use the program for discipleship, you can talk by phone a couple of times each week, or meet each other in person. Consider making this year the year to encourage one another in the Word of God!

Book Summaries

Before we read each book of the Bible there will be a summary of that book.

Below are daily commentaries which include links to accompanying teachings by Pastor Lloyd. These teachings will help you dig deeper into specific passages and will help explain the background and context that is harder to come by in personal reading.

Prayers

Grow in your prayer life with our daily prayers to accompany your reading of Scripture. Your prayer life is a significant part of your walk with Christ and we have added these prayers to assist you in strengthening your relationship with Him.

Christian Quotes

Featured quotes from individuals like C.S. Lewis, Spurgeon, Tozer, Corrie Ten Boom, and more.

Worship Songs

Our reading of the Bible should lead us to respond in worship. For each day’s reading we’ve linked worship songs with themes that help us celebrate the truths we’ve read.

Testimonies

Our lives are living testimonies to the power of the blood of Christ and this year we encourage you to share what the Lord has done in your life with our church family. Share Your Testimony!

God Moments

Have you ever had a moment or an encounter that you just knew was the Lord? Maybe you felt God's love in an inexplicable way or felt His hand of guidance through a difficult situation. Have a God Moment? Share Your God Moment
