A new way to read the Bible

The Bible tells us what God wants us to know
about Himself, which is why most of us have
tried at least once to read it cover-to-cover.

Soon, however, we give up, wearied
by countless tales of battles and unending
lists of difficult names.

Now comes A Year With the Bible—a daily 
devotional
that beautifully presents the major themes of Scripture
alongside thoughtful meditations by world-renowned
writer and scholar Patrick Madrid.


A Year With the Bible:
Scriptural Wisdom for Daily Living

Patrick Madrid
$39.95 — 388 Pages
 
Beautifully bound and embossed with ribbon marker and gold edges, A Year With the Bible features rich passages from the Bible in one, easy-to-follow style that will help you to grow in your knowledge and love of Jesus Christ and to deal more effectively with anxiety, uncertainty, and weakness.

After spending twelve months reading A Year With the Bible, you will have a much deeper understanding of what Scripture says about temptation, prayer, forgiveness, death, fear, parenting, money, friendship, and even the antichrist and End Times.

Even those who are already experienced with regular study and praying with Scripture will find this book to be a helpful companion to your daily life and growth in Christian maturity.  It will bring to mind the many things the Lord is telling you that can easily be overlooked in the hurly burly of your daily routine.

A Year With the Bible is a worthy introduction to Scripture that also serves as a daily devotional and a tool for deeper prayer. It is as versatile as it is beautiful—and it's a resource no Christian should be without.
 

When you order A Year With the Bible, we will include How to Read the Bible at no cost to you!

In How to Read the Bible, Abbe Poelman will show you how to begin reading the Bible regularly and profitbly, coming away with a vigorous new love for the ever-faithful God of our salvation.  Among the other things Poelman will show you . . . 

  • Critical persons and incidents in the Old Testament you must not miss, lest you fail to understand key steps in God's deliberate, measured revelation of Himself and His will to the People of Israel (and to us).
     
  • Specific Bible chapters and verses to which you must pay particularly close attention so as to come to know who God really is.
     
  • The countless Old Testament promises God made to His people . . . and kept . . . despite their faithlessness, fulfilling most of them in Christ Himself.
     
  • Critical steppingstones that will help you pick your way through longer and more difficult historical chapters in the Old Testament.
     
  • Hundreds of incidents and themes in the New Testament that echo and reinforce ones introduced in the Old.
