Encounter

The Bible is a great way to get to know God and the kind of Father he is. The Bible itself might feel hard to get into, especially if you don’t know where to look or what to look for. But God’s Word is a personal message to you, today—and everyone you encounter in the Bible is worth learning from in some way. As we journey through the Bible together, you’ll discover that living as a Christian is not so much about “finding yourself” as it is about finding and unleashing Christ’s power within you. And the more you recognize God’s presence in your life, the better you’ll be able to share his love with others.

The secret to a joyful life and a hope-filled future isn’t about figuring out tomorrow. It’s about listening to God today.

God, the Author of Life, has something to say to you through the brothers and sisters who went before you. So take a deep breath and turn the page—it’s story time!

“Let no one despise your youth, but set the believers an example in speech and conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.”
—1 Timothy 4:12
