The Bible is a book that begs to be discovered -- and lived by. That is exactly what this set of study manuals is designed to help you do. It is a four-year spiritual journal with a daily devotional study though the Word of God. These manuals consist of a yearlong walk through the New Testament and a three-year excursion through the Old Testament based on studying one chapter each weekday for the fifty-two weeks in a year. The expedition through the book of Psalms will be repeated annually on the weekends. Each entry includes one verse to memorize. It is difficult to select just one verse each day because most chapters contain many verses which we should, as the psalmist said, hide in our hearts. Next comes a short distillation of the basic principle of the chapter and a brief outline of the chapter. The Bible study is followed by a simple prayer intended to bring the truth of the chapter into practical application. A section for the reader's notes follows where you can log your own personal revelations and insights about the chapter. A space for noting your own personal spiritual journal (which could include prayer requests, answered prayers, and testimonies) rounds out the daily devotion. Twenty minutes a day, seven days a week, fifty-two weeks a year will produce one brand new man in each friend who seriously applies himself to the program and the program to himself.
