INTRODUCTORY READING PLAN  

A Bible Reading plan gives you a systematic way to explore your Bible, whether that means reading every chapter over a year or two (as with NLCC’s LIFE Journal plan), or exploring a certain theme over a few days or weeks. If you do this for a lifetime, you will deepen your understanding of the overall narrative of Scripture, its major themes and recurring images, and “the whole counsel of God” (Acts 20:27).

This reading plan accompanies the NLCC Sermon Series on the apprenticeship practice of Scripture (Fall 2020). It leads you through a basic overview of the biblical story of salvation: from creation, to humanity’s fall into sin, through the story of Israel, the coming of Jesus the Messiah, and briefly into the birth of the church. We hope it gives you a taste of the joy and reward that comes from hearing God’s voice to you in Scripture.

A printed version of the booklet is available through the church office (open M-F, 9 am - 5 pm), or on Sunday mornings at one of our onsite gatherings.
