One habit that is very profitable to cultivate, in order to grow in our relationship with Jesus, is the practice of daily Bible reading. It is our desire to assist you, if you would like to develop this practice.
"The vigor of our spiritual life will be in direct proportion
to the place held by the Bible in our life & thoughts."

to the place held by the Bible in our life & thoughts."

If someone observed an average day in your life, how would they see you spend your time? How much of your time is given to TV, Facebook, YouTube, podcasts, or hobbies? How much do you devote to Bible reading? It might surprise you to know that, by spending just 12-20 minutes a day reading the Bible, you could read through the entire Bible in just one year. (How long does it take to read the Bible?) God can use even five minutes each day in His word to change your life.
There are many different translations and "specialty" Bibles available—including Life Application (with study notes) and Chronological (used in the Through the Bible in a Year class, Sundays at 10AM & Wednesdays at 6:30PM)—that can assist you in making your Bible reading time well spent. If you don't already have a Bible, GracePoint has several different options available FREE. Just ask at the Info Center or the Growth Groups kiosk in the foyer. Additionally, there are online Bibles, including an audio Bible, and Bible study aids also available free. If you don't find what you are looking for (or know what to look for!) just ask one of our staff and we would be happy to help you.
