Verse of the Week

Nathanael answered him, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!” Jesus answered him, “Because I said to you, ‘I saw you under the fig tree,’ do you believe? You will see greater things than these.” And he said to him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”

2026 Bible Reading Challenge

How will you read your Bible more this year?

Reading the Bible deepens your understanding and connection with God. One effective approach is to set a specific and manageable daily reading schedule, such as reading a chapter a day or dedicating 15 to 20 minutes each morning.

Consider using a Bible reading plan, many of which are available online or in Bible apps, that guides you through different sections over the year. Engaging with a study group or participating in a Bible discussion class can offer additional insights and accountability. Additionally, incorporating journaling into your reading practice can help you reflect on passages and apply their teachings to your life.

Remember, the key is consistency and making the process meaningful and enjoyable.

To grow in the knowledge of God and to live in light of His truth, it’s important that we set aside focused time to study His Word.
