Daily Bread 2018: July - September

Daily Bread is the Bible reading guide that aims to help you hear from God as you read the Bible. If you've ever asked the question, 'What possible relevance can this verse have for me today?' or 'What difference does this passage make to my life?' then read on...

This quarter's readings challenge us not to give up, nor conform to the culture. The prophets Jeremiah and Amos speak out in a nation that had abandoned God. Paul calls the Philippian church to remain close to Jesus in such a culture, and he calls Timothy, a young leader, to speak out in a wayward church. In Matthew 18 to 22, Jesus' questions probe how fully devoted to him our lives are. Job asks, what is God doing in the trials of my life? 1 Chronicles asks, what is God doing in history? Let these readings challenge you to think and pray and act differently from the culture around you.
