Genesis Daily Bible Reading

Build a Bible reading habit in the new year!

In the beginning…
These are the opening words of the Bible in Genesis 1:1. As we kick off 2023, we are going back to the beginning and starting in Genesis. Together we will read one chapter a day, walking through the book over the course of 50 days. We will meet familiar faces and stories and come across others we are less familiar with, but as we read Genesis, we are laying a foundation for further study.

Daily texts:
To encourage the spiritual discipline of Bible reading, we have set up a text group! Each day you will receive the daily scripture and a short devotional video sent right to your phone! Join today by texting “Genesis” to 703-454-5990.

Want to discuss what you are reading?
We have set up a Facebook group to do just that! Join the groups here and be part of the daily discussion.

Bible reading tips:

Ever feel like you just can’t understand what it says or what it means? Try reading a modern translation such as the CSB, ESV, or NLT. Each translation tries to balance staying true to the original meaning with being readable in today’s English vernacular. We find the ESV to balance these well. The NLT is even easier to read but loses some of the power and depth of meaning found in the ESV.

Whatever translation you chose, the important part is to get in the Bible every day. Before reading ask God to help you to understand what you read. Then sit back, read the daily reading in your Bible or using the links below, and trust God to teach you something about His love for you.
