Reading the Bible in 2011

Submitted by gkoeberl on Fri, 2011-01-21 17:06

Welcome to the days of Advent. This month’s readings reflect the themes of hiding, seeking, waiting and being found. Consider lighting a candle or an Advent wreath each day as you read the text and pray, “Open my eyes to your coming, Lord.” Blessings on your quiet time with God!
