As you prepare to make your 2019 new year’s resolutions, I encourage everyone to have a Bible reading plan at the top of their list. As we spend more time in God’s word, we discover that there are stories of people who faced some of the same circumstances we face today, and we can learn from their successes and failures.

God’s word is a book of wisdom for us to study so that we may apply lessons learned to our personal lives. It contains true stories of individuals who lived their lives for Christ. It provides us countless examples of individuals who overcame challenges to keep living their life for the Lord and what a faith centered life is truly all about.

Hebrews 13:7 “Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith.”
