90 Day Bible Fitness Challenge
How is the fitness of your biblical knowledge? How well do you know the story of God as revealed in Holy Scripture? If we are truthful, we might all admit that we are a little out of shape when it comes to our Biblical health. Pastor David is challenging St. Jacob’s to get in shape. Getting in shape means making changes in how we live. Getting into spiritual shape means we examine how we feed our soul and our faith. The best way to get into a healthy Biblical condition is to make small changes over a period of time.
If you want to make small changes leading to a healthy knowledge of God’s Word, then this challenge is for you! It isn’t a strenuous exercise program, but a spiritual conditioning regimen to help you achieve your goals. Those who accept the challenge will read the Bible in chronological order, as events happened. We will be reading the New Living Translation Chronological Life Application Study Bible. You will receive a daily Bible reading plan comprised of about twenty pages per day. You will also have an opportunity to join in conversation with others with weekly
small groups. An informational pamphlet was included in the June 13th and June 20th worship bulletin. If you don’t have one but would like to know more about the challenge, contact the church office.
Our challenge is now underway. If you are wanting to take up this challenge but missed the deadline to order your Bible and begin, don’t worry. This will not be a “one and done” exercise. We will offer this same challenge again in the future. The goal is to get as many members of St. Jacob’s as possible reading through the entire Bible, so that we can truly say we are a congregation rooted in the Word of God.
