"A Psalm for Christmas" December 25 Readings: Zechariah 5-6, Revelation 15–16, Psalm 147:1–7, Proverbs 31:14–16

By Dave Miller December 25, 2025

Reading the Bible in 2025 Each day this year, we will read a selection from the Old Testament, the New Testament, a portion of the Psalms, and a part of Proverbs. By the end of the year, you will have read the entire Bible. We read this way to give you a bit of variety. NOTE: If you get behind, do not give up. Read today's readings and try to catch up when you have a chance. The goal is not to "accomplish a task" but to meet God in his word. Read the word. Also, if you are short on time, READ GOD'S WORD and skip my devotional! Bible Readings: Zechariah 5-6, Revelation 15–16, Psalm 147:1–7, Proverbs 31:14–16 Scriptures linked to Bible Gateway in ESV version Daily Devotional: A Psalm for Christmas MERRY CHRISTMAS! I'm going to keep this short today since you and I both have a lot to do. There are presents to open, a goose to cook (if you are the Cratchit family), and families to enjoy. Christmas has become about so many things in ...

"Why Can't I Do As I Please?" February 21 Readings: Joshua 19-24

By Dave Miller February 21, 2026

Reading the Bible Chronologically in 2026 This year, we will read the Bible chronologically, as it happened, instead of simply reading from Genesis to Revelation. The Old Testament is approximately 3/4 of the Bible, but we will give more emphasis to the New Testament, spending half the year in the Old Testament and half in the New. Bible Readings : Joshua 19-24 In Bible Gateway, we will link to the NIV this year, though you can choose any version you prefer. Background: As the inheritance is distributed to each tribe, we begin to see the fact that the tribes are failing to drive out the inhabitants from their areas. They may subdue them, but they do not drive them out. Those inhabitants would eventually come back to haunt them. The book of Joshua ends with a powerful covenant renewal, in which Joshua leads the people to recommit themselves to faithful obedience to God. Daily Devotional: Why Can't I Do As I Please Why can't I just do w...

"God's Relentless Faithfulness" February 22 Readings: Judges 1-5

By Dave Miller February 22, 2026

Reading the Bible Chronologically in 2026 This year, we will read the Bible chronologically, as it happened, instead of simply reading from Genesis to Revelation. The Old Testament is approximately 3/4 of the Bible, but we will give more emphasis to the New Testament, spending half the year in the Old Testament and half in the New. Bible Readings : Judges 1-5 In Bible Gateway, we will link to the NIV this year, though you can choose any version you prefer. Background: Having divided up the tribal land, Israel failed to drive out the inhabitants as they were commanded to, and the result was a terrible cycle of spiritual drift, catastrophe, revival, and renewed drift. Chapter 2 explains the cycle, and the rest of the book covers the stories of the judges who led Israel back to God. There are 12 judges, but the book focuses on 7. Throughout the duration of this book, there is a downward moral spiral that results in Israel's lowest point in its ...
