I wanted to do another bible review, but I need a better set up in my truck to be able to do one. Instead, I thought it would be a good idea to show you guys what my daily reading / devotionals are looking like while on the road.
I work for like 10 hours a day, driving and such....So that gives me plenty of down time once I'm parked for the night in the truck stops. So while this may seem like a lot to take in, it's actually been going very well. I'm able to get through my devotionals (especially the ones I'm doing on the phone with my wife each night) and other readings I'm doing daily...
Let's dive in...
Daily Bible Readings
I'm currently reading through the bible in two plans. One (Blended) is the plan we are reading together in the Kingdom Discord as a group. The second is my OT / NT reading plan. I actually started the OT / NY on May 31st and I'm about 3 weeks away from being completed.
Reading through the bible multiple times this year was a challenge I wanted to push myself towards and so far, it's been VERY rewarding. These two plans are about 5-8 chapters a day.
Personal Prayer & Devotions
This is a personal prayer / bible study book that I'm thoroughly enjoying! This is a serioes of 40 days studies that are very popular within my church. This is book # 4 out of 15. I've been working through these (not in order) and it's allowing me to dive deeper into topics that fascinate me when it comes to the bible.
Sabbath School Lessons
This is my church's bible study that happens every quarter. The worldwide Seventh Day Adventist church does an in depth study on different topics, themes and books of the bible.
And the new quarter just began last week....We're going through the book of Joshua and looking at the lessons of faith within this amazing historical book. It's only been a few days but so far it's been another amazing and rewarding experience.
Family Devotionals
Every night on the road so far, my wife gives me a call and we go through two incredible devotionals. They are both verse by verse studies of the books of Daniel & Revelation.
I'm a huge fan of prophecy, so you could only imagine, how much fun it is to read these powerful books of Scripture. These are produced by my famorite online ministry on the planet - Amazing Facts.
Which was the ministry that really led me to Christ. Such powerful messages of hope and these books compliment their lessons so well.
Books
Believe it or not, it's not just the bible and these devotionals I'm diving into daily too....
The Anatomy of Sin by Shawn Boonstra is what I am spending time in right now. It's not a long book, so I should be done it in a few days. But it's eye opening to say the least. Plus Shawn is such a great writer and speaker, I enjoy a lot of his work!
And yeah.....Like I mentioned, I get a lot of down time. But honestly, this takes me about an hour each night. And it's time invested I think that will pay dividends for eternity :)
This is one of the many blessings I get while being on the road.....I'm nose deep into holy things!
