Daily Bible Readings

How many of you read your Bible? Let me re-phrase that. How many of you read your Bible on a daily basis? It's unfortunate, but most Christians don't.

According to the Barna Group, over the past 20 years, casual Bible reading (not counting church) has declined. Only 40% of adults now read their Bible on a weekly basis. This is a sad minority. It's time someone sends a message to Christians around the world.

Sadly, until about a year ago, I wasn't part of the minority. I was doing what a lot of so called Christians are doing. Once I did eventually start reading daily, I found new joys in God's word. I can honestly say that my life changed for the better, and I my prayer is that everyone would take the necessary steps to turn their lives around.

Daily Bible reading is part of the everyday Christian's routine. It's something we should practice out of habit. It's time to change those statistics. It's time to start walking the walk, instead of talking the talk. Faith without actions is dead, so get going!
