An Open Letter from My Friend… May 6, 2022

Dear friends,

In 2018, Scott Pauley and I hosted the first Rest Conference at Tabernacle Baptist Church in Hickory, NC. Our friend, Shane Lewis, who is now with the Lord, was our guest speaker. More than one hundred of our fellow laborers and friends, along with their wives, joined us for a special time of edification and fellowship. Since then we have enjoyed the Lord’s blessings upon our meetings and encouraging fellowship together with so many of you. As the Lord Jesus invited His disciples to come apart and rest a while, we invite you and your wife to take a few days this fall to join us for Rest, September 5-7, 2022. 

Recently, Scott and I recorded a brief podcast to explain what the Rest conference is all about. I would like to encourage you to do two things: take a few minutes of your time to learn more about the Rest Conference, and forward this email along to a friend in ministry you think would benefit from the Rest Conference. 

While you are on the podcast channel, you will find several messages that have been given at previous Rest Conferences. We trust that you will be blessed by them. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-rest-podcast/id1502119066.

Your Friend,  
Scott Hooks

M’Cheyne’s Bible Reading Plan Each year I adopt some plan for my daily devotional reading of Scripture. To be honest, I try to vary this a little each year to keep it fresh. Over the last year, I have been using a plan that Robert Murray M’Cheyne developed for the people that he pastored. It is helpful for several reasons: It leads you through the Old Testament once and the New Testament and Psalms twice during the year. It gives a variety of Scripture passages to read each day - historical, prophetical, and devotional. It divides the readings into readings for the morning and for the evening. It promotes a reading for private devotions and one for family devotions. It encourages the church family to read through the Bible together. M’Cheyne’s heart was to strengthen families and the church family, while deepening the personal devotion of each Christian. I can tell you from personal experience, that it has been a delight to follow. (Read M'Cheyne's full introduction to his system HERE).  We have decided to make M’Cheyne’s plan available through Enjoying the Journey this year, with the prayer that God will use it to lead all of us to a life full of the Word in the days ahead.
