The Daily Bible Challenge

  Good morning and Happy Fourth to all my readers in the USA. We are a rugged country of individualists and were founded in the treasonous acts of a few and dependence on God Himself! Yes, the men and women who founded the USA were committing treason against the UK, yet they are heroes in our eyes. Just read the Federalist Papers if you doubt God was a part of this process. Now that is as close to a political note as you will ever hear from The Daily Bible Challenge!   Today’s challenge is Leviticus 18, and so many of society’s woes would be resolved if we just followed God’s plan for us revealed in this chapter; just about every known perversion of man is covered in these few words. We have about nine more days of Levitical law to cover, and then we will be past one of the very hardest parts of the Daily Bible Challenge. I love the Bible, but even I cringe at entering into the book of Leviticus each year. Maybe some of you love this book, and if that is so, please share your ...

        Good Thursday morning, I finished my little contract job yesterday afternoon, and the small amount of add-ons requested. I will be invoicing this a little later this morning. My old bones had trouble with this job; I’m sore all over this morning as if I ran a marathon yesterday. It is probably just a side effect of Hashimoto's disease. It is tough to hear, but God seems to be telling me to slow down. I am not good at that, so maybe He is teaching me something about it! It is important to be listening to God for such lessons and not assume everything in life is a coincidence.   I had a friend send me a comment about all the detailed instructions in Leviticus and how there must be a hidden meaning in all of it. Well, in a way, he is right! Just not about it being hidden; it is right here in plain sight if you have read the New Testament, too! The “law” was to show us how much we needed God and a Savior. No one has ever fulfilled every single law in Le...

  Good morning, we are in Leviticus 16 for Today’s Daily Bible Challenge. Please join us as each of us becomes one of the statistical few who have actually read the whole Bible cover to cover! Just how many Bibles do you have around your house, and then ask yourself, have you read any of them? Yes, I am sure many of you have, but many who proclaim to be Christians have only heard what a preacher says, one verse here and another there. Or worse, they have only listened to complete strangers in person, or on the internet like me! I don’t want you to trust me, I want you to trust God, and what better way to learn to trust God than to actually start listening to Him fully, in context! About once a month, you will hear me saying we are here to stop listening to gossip about God and start listening to God about God!   I hope this journey through the Bible will be full of prayers asking God to reveal Himself to you through His words in the Bible. Here at the Daily Bible Challenge, w...

     Good Tuesday morning to all of you, I hope this letter finds you and yours well! I will be headed out soon to try to finish the contracting job I started yesterday, but I imagine it will stretch into tomorrow morning, too. I am just thankful to have the work after a long dry spell in the business! Most people in our area are cutting back these days, and projects have been on hold for a while now. You know that guy or girl who talks about uncomfortable topics at a party? Well, that is what Today’s Daily Bible Challenge is like! The Bible covers just about every topic under the sun, and if you are squeamish, maybe you should skim read this and move on. But The Daily Bible Challenge is a cover-to-cover challenge, and that in itself can be part of the challenge. Thus, the funny picture is just clickbait and is totally unrelated to today’s chapter! Well, unless you rely on the old saying, "The devil is in the details". I looked this chapter up on the Got Questions ...
