As a church, this is assuredly one of the most vital practices we can do together. Psalm 119:105 reminds us that 

“[God's] word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path.” Simply said, if we’re not reading our Bibles this year, we’ll be walking in the dark.  We invite you to look at the link below to find the 2012 Bible Reading Plan for First Christian Church.

 Our Goal this year will be to read the New Testament together.  While the Old Testament is important

 I want us to focus on the New Testament this year!
