Good News In A Bad World March 24, 2023

2303-15 Good News SLIDE_1400x897

Today’s ETJ podcast concludes our study of the first section of Acts. What an encouragement this portion of Scripture has been to my faith! The Adventure Continues…and shortly we will return to our series in this amazing book. Over the next two weeks, leading up to Resurrection Sunday, we are excited to share with you a short study on some of the greatest gospel passages in the Bible.

Good News in a Bad World

Our world is inundated with bad news, but the good news of Christ is greater than all of it combined! The Lord Jesus brings good news both for this life and the world to come. More than ever, we need to know it, meditate on it, revel in it, and share it.

This week I had the privilege to speak to a fine group of young people on how to begin sharing Christ with others. Our text was a little known but powerful verse in Proverbs, one of Solomon’s sentence sermons: “As cold waters to a thirsty soul, So is good news from a far country” (Proverbs 25:25). We have the privilege and opportunity to carry the water of life – to share the good news of salvation! Thirsty souls are waiting.

Join us for this short series beginning Monday, and invite others who need Christ to listen. Let’s pray together that many will hear the gospel and be saved. And, let’s determine to do what we can in these days to deliver the good news to as many people as possible.

For the gospel’s sake,”

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.
