We remember that Jesus called his first disciples yesterday, and now he is starting his ministry. This passage is the very first miracle. It is the famous water turning into wine story. It is a story that John has selected to show what Jesus’s mission was all about. We have to remember that all the […]
Now that Jesus has passed the test to be our righteousness, he goes and gathers his disciples. There are different accounts of Jesus calling his first disciples in the Gospels, and in our Children’s worship, we read and learned John’s account. It isn’t as well known as the fishermen story, but I think it
Our daily Bible time in the living room has moved to our dining table for a couple days. Now we read the Bible while enjoying dessert, and it has been better for the boys to concentrate since they have something to do with their bodies. Also, it silences Owen who is our biggest distraction.
Our family was joking that even though this Bible reading plan is to follow Jesus, we haven’t seen Jesus do anything but be born. But we will read Jesus do something today! Before we read our passage, I asked the boys if they remember what Jesus did before he started his ministry. What is the
Day 11 – Matthew 3:1-16 Baptism of Jesus(Short version – Matthew 3:4-6 & 13-17) We finally have Jesus in action! The passage starts by explaining John the Baptist’s ministry.

Finally Jesus’s birth! It is day 9 in our 40 day journey, and finally we get to meet Jesus in person! This is the Christmas story, and because we have been waiting for so long, I feel like we have actually gone through the Advent season when we wait eagerly for our Messiah. And now
It seems like we are in the Christmas season. There has been quite a bit of snow coming even in March, and plenty of white on the ground to remind you that winter is still present. We are now reading Christmas stories. We come to the passage of the Birth of John the Baptist. It
We are finally in the New Testament! We now come to the book of John in the Gospels, and we read our passage for today. The passage started out very confusing for the boys. I read verse 1 – Whuuuuht?? Evan and Ian looked at me with smiles as I re-read it a couple times.
I start our time by saying we are going back to Isaiah to read more prophecies of Jesus. We look at the Bible, and we are almost exactly at the half point of the Bible. We have come a long way! The boys ask when we will be able to go to the New Testament,
