Day One

Day One: Matthew 1 -
As you read today think about what insights did
Matthew offer to the life of Jesus that you had not noticed before this reading?

Matthew 1: genealogies can be boring... this one is fascinating: some of the people mentioned in the genealogy are liars, cheaters, prostitutes, adulterers, and so on. This is the lineage Christ came into and the people that he came for.

Matthew 1: "God with us"...Amen.

Matthew 2: the Magi went to Christ to worship Him!

Matthew 3: John the Baptist prepared the way for Christ, How are you preparing the way for the risen Christ in peoples lives?

more to come soon....

READ THRU IN 30: Day 1

The Heart of these 30 days:
Please understand the heart of why we are doing this. We are not reading through the New Testament in 30 days so we can all receive spiritual merit badges or feel better about ourselves as Christians. This is only a tool to help us to know our heavenly Father better. We are not legalistic about reading everyday, however we do want to be more disclipined. Use this time as a way to grow closer to Christ, if you miss Day it is ok. Built in to the schedule are 'grace days' to help you catch up. If you get really far behind, it is ok. Keep reading. Keep seeking His presence in your life. Be encouraged, God wants to communicate with you.

Lets dig for God's presence together!
