Sometimes we are too intense to track how often we read the Bible and try to read a devotional every day to check it off our list. We focus for a time, miss a day, get a new verse or verses tomorrow, and start all over to try for a reading every day. What if we could work on the same reading for a week—same verse or verses, same application—and transform our lives to follow God through his Word one week at a time?

We can set a foundation of a manageable list of verses to pray through and memorize, learn the overview of the verses or chapter, and find an application for our lives to apply the rest of the week.

Whether by yourself, with a friend, or in a small group, you can become more knowledgeable on how God uses the writers and people of the Bible to challenge us forward in our walk with God today.
