Daily Bible Verse

Deuteronomy 8:17-18

ARE YOU ENJOYING YOUR BIBLE?

One of the best ways to enjoy your Bible is to use some form of daily Bible reading notes that not only suggest a passage for you to read each day, but also supply you with a brief comment to help you engage with the passage.

If you enjoy longer times to spend with God, or like to plan your own Quiet Day, why not try QUIET SPACES, a devotional guide designed to give you material to use yourself, however you want?
