A Simple Christmas Story – Gospel of Luke – 20 Day Bible Study Reading Challenge Intro & Freebies

Praise God Saints! Today starts the first day of A Simple Christmas Story – Gospel of Luke – 20 Day Bible Study Reading Challenge! We’ve completed the Gospels of John, Matthew and Mark challenges and have continued to learn tons of information about Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. Now we’re moving on to the simple story of Jesus birth!

Instead of reading the entire Gospel of Luke (which we should eventually complete), I thought it would be a good time to reflect on what God accomplished through humble servants of his miraculous birth!

Christmas shouldn’t all be about receiving gifts – but simply giving gifts of love to our friends, loved ones and neighbors. That’s why Jesus came and that’s why he died…

When I was baptized and started following Jesus as a 5 yr old child, I didn’t know much about him. I was following my cousins and got baptized, because it was the thing to do in my church growing up. But God knew what he was doing and the seed was planted.

As an adult, learning how to follow Jesus wasn’t an easy task. Satan always knows what and how to tempt you into doing other things besides doing the will of God. And like most people, I wasn’t any different.

But as life went on, the seed that God planted inside my heart as a 5 yr old child, began to grow and I found myself searching and seeking after the God who created me inside and out.

Happy Monday Saints! Praise God we made it through the final 5th Week of reading the Gospel of Matthew. We find this final week that Jesus is speaking to the disciples in parables about the resurrection and what’s to come in eternity. He warns the chief priests about being hypocrites and teaching his people ways that were not initially from God. Jesus also is brought up with charges in front of Pilate to be crucified as the King of the Jews.

Happy Monday Saints! Praise God we made it through the 3rd Week of reading the Gospel of Matthew. This week going forward, I’ve decided not to add “How can I apply today’s word to my life?” on my recaps. I feel that this question is personal between you and God and should be written in your journal that I provided as a keepsake or promise to Him.
