Did you know? The Bible Challenge website has a “Going Deeper” section. There are in-depth study guides for each book of the Bible, and accompanying audio lectures that you can listen to at your convenience. These lectures were recorded live from St. Peter’s Episcopal Church in Lake Mary, FL as we went through the Bible Challenge in 2013.
I hope you will be blessed as you go deeper in the study of God’s Word.

Day 70 Numbers 15:17-16:40; Mark 15:1-47; Psalm 54:1-7; Proverbs 11:5-6 Our Guarantee Guarantees—we put our trust in a secured outcome. In uncertain times, we demand certainty. We want a real deal, a good value. As Jesus approached and suffered the cross, we have no doubts to whom He turned and relied to give Him the…
Day 236 Job 12:1-15:35; 1 Corinthians 15:29-58; Psalm 39:1-13; Proverbs 21:30-31 Alive in the Spirit Today’s survey of Job strips away any hope we might have for salvation while here on earth, in this life, in our bodies, and in dealing with our individual and corporate distractions of the secular. Couple that with the “Resurrection…
