SERMONS

I have spent the majority of my life doing work that never shows.
For more than two decades now, I’ve been (mostly) home with our children. I realize that I have had the luxury of making that choice, and I’m so grateful for that opportunity, and staying home was the right decision for our family. But…

If you don’t have the time to read this post, you need to read this post.
You have a gazillion items on your to-do list; Christmas is creeping up on you; 2026 is barreling down on you.
But you need to read these words:
It is time to rest.
-
× Take five minutes when your child or spouse or roommate comes home – or when you yourself come home – to rejoice in those relationships and assert the value these people have in your life.
× Drive to work in silence rather than listen to Spotify or a podcast.
× Instead of watching TV while on the machines at the gym, exercise outside and notice what you walk or run or bike past.

This blog is an adventure - in reading God's word, in listening to God's voice, in doing God's will. The idea started with Sarah, who wanted a "companion" of sorts for her yearly trek through The One Year Bible. "Why not write one?" she thought to herself. To make it even more fun, she invited her mom and two sisters to join her in the journey, knowing they had an equal love for God's word.
You are now reading the result. We hope you'll join us each day as we read through The One Year Bible and reflect on the beauty and power of Scripture. -
Use whatever version of The One Year Bible you prefer. Some of us use the ESV, others use the NIV. We've also read the NLV. If you don't have a version of the OYB, we've added the passages in that day's reading to the top of each post. You can also find a listing of the entire year's passages here.
That being said, we don't necessarily make reference to each of the four sections (OT, NT, Psalms, Proverbs). When we do cite a specific passage or quote a verse, we do our best to provide the reference.
Each post is designed to be read after you've finished your daily reading, but if you find yourself in a season where it's hard to connect to God's word, feel free to read here first. We've certainly each done that ourselves and found it helpful for anticipating what God might want to say on any given day.
We're praying for you and we're glad you here, reading God's word so that it changes your life. "All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be competent, equipped for every good work" (2 Tim. 3:16-17). May God's word take root and bear fruit in you. -
