The New Year of 2025 is right around the corner and many people are beginning to think about goals. At Journey onWord, we pray that one of your goals is to be a consistent student of God’s Word. Jim Cymbala wrote the following in his book Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire, “Spiritual power is always linked with communion with God.” There is no question that a primary facet of communion with God comes from communion with His Word.
In 2025, our reading plan will center on spending a year in the New Testament at the pace of one chapter each day. We believe reading one chapter Monday-Friday (with reflection or catch-up days each weekend) gives you the time to read and reflect meaningfully on each chapter. Our goal at Journey is to present opportunities for people to engage Scripture daily, and then trust God to change lives as He wills and works. Next year’s purpose is not in the volume of reading, but the intentional spiritual growth one experiences from sincere, daily time in the Word. Reading and reflecting on the truths of Scripture is essential as we seek to mature in faith. Also, having the time each weekend to catch-up, if needed, is meaningful. As an added feature for 2025, the plan includes reading through Proverbs four times during the year. You will notice which months are set for Proverbs by the cross symbol at the beginning of the month. Proverbs is rich with wisdom that we all need … every day!
