Featured Projects

  • Read the Bible Aloud

    Some of the most fun I've had in my Bible study time has been sustained periods of shouting God's Word aloud. Throughout Scripture God calls His people to response and action, and often a spoken word is the simplest form of response. Putting God's Word in your mouth and ears may be the most effective way of placing it within your heart.

  • Moleskine Notebook Bible

    Create an interleaved Bible by pasting alternating pages from old abused paperback editions into a large plain notebook. With a little ingenuity and some old Bibles and some household items you can have a study tool similar to Jonathan Edward's blank Bible.

  • Creating Cross References

    One of the most common ways to take notes in your Bible is to create your own cross-references in the margins, linking verses that interpret and illuminate each other. Often the process and order of creating these cross references leads to new revelation as topics connect and diverge, one theme leads to another and the relationship between topics in the Word often brings light.

  • Newsletters

    My monthly newsletter articles feature the fruits of study and obedience to fulfill God's call as an urban missionary in the Metro Detroit area. The newsletter posts feature the opening article and a link to the full newsletter and to old newsletters. The articles focus on discovering intimacy and passion on the urban mission field and in Muslim Ministry.

  • Christ's Commands: Amplified Bible

    This highlighting project didn't start out with a complex color scheme, but grew from the desire to focus on a single subject. Jesus makes an unequivocal statement in John 14:15 that constantly challenged me as a young believer and continues to stir me and burn me today: "If you love me you will keep my commandments."p>

  • Homemade KJV Looseleaf

    printkjv.ifbweb.com offers free Microsoft word and Plain Text files of the entire KJV. This means that the text block can reformatted and printed it any way. It also features the books of the Bible in individual documents so you can print an individual book to look at. Perhaps the most obvious use of this resource is the creation of an interleaf Bible.p>

The 3650 Challenge - Horner's Bible Reading System

Tim Challies has invited readers to join him in a year long excursion through the Bible using Dr. Grant Horner's Bible Reading Plan. Tim has been using an audio Bible to go through the plan, an excellent idea and has stirred quite a lot of interest in the project.

This comes at a perfect time for people to start new habits for the new year and I am excited to see so many people committing to read ten chapters per day. I think using an audio Bible for the plan is an excellent idea. I include links to the challenge, some resources rounded up by Tim, a recent interview with Grant Horner about the plan and my original feature of the plan.

I am joining the challenge myself using the free full ESV audio Bible from Faith Comes by Hearing. It promises to be an excellent year of study and immersion in God's word. I'll be posting more about starting new reading and study disciplines in the new year, but please consider joining the 3650 challenge.
