Bible Reading & New Bible Study

 

How has your Bible reading been so far this year?

Our goal is not just to read the Bible like any other book, but to let it read us—shaping our hearts, minds, and lives in a profound way. That’s why we make a conscious effort to read or listen through the entire Bible each year.

This year, Esther read through the New Testament for the first time! Joyce and I also help Hannah listen to the audio Bible every morning—even if it’s only five minutes. During breakfast, we share what we learned from our reading. Since school keeps the mornings brief, the time is short—but I see how this small habit is gradually shaping their worldview and character.

On the first Sunday of 2026, January 4, we will celebrate Epiphany Sunday—the day when Jesus, the Light and Word of God, was revealed to the world, symbolically through the visit of the magi. I think it is the perfect time to celebrate “Bible Sunday” and acknowledge those who have read through either the entire Bible or the New Testament this year. If you have, please let me know!

I’m also excited to share about our new Bible Study: Introducing the New Testament by D. A. Carson. From January to May, we will explore the entire New Testament together. This study will help us see the big picture and gain a deeper understanding of God’s Word. Stay tuned! 

Thank you, and stay well. Love you all. 

In Christ's love,
Pastor Victor
