Wandering Through Exodus for 30 Days
Hey y’all! Thanks for joining us as we Wander Through Exodus for 30 days. At the end of these 30 days, we will have completely read through the entire 2nd book of the Bible. If you would like to participate in Wandering Through Exodus for 30 days with us, we will be using #WanderingThroughGodsWord!
We will include some video links that help explain why it is so important.
We started this initiative because we saw a need to help people get into God’s word in a simple way. So many rely on devotionals (most of which teach very little at best) or books on the Bible. Some of those can be helpful, but why not go to the untainted source? And no matter how much we like or trust an author, it’s important to remember is that commentary and notes included in study Bibles, book studies, and devotionals are not inspired and are written by fallible humans. (If you would like a study Bible we do recommend this one and this one).
As always, we would like to reiterate we are not scholars. Just regular people trying to serve our brothers and sisters in Christ by helping them learn. This reading plan is simple. No frills here. But we would like to include a few things to help you before you get started.
It’s important to realize we are NOT in the Bible. We should strive to read the text as it was intended. We are not David, Daniel, or anyone else in the Bible. So here are some things to understand and ask ourselves when beginning to read Scripture.
Things to understand about Scripture in general:
1) It’s our source for divine revelation from God, His truth, and guidance
2) The Bible instructs us in how to love, obey, and worship God
3) It’s infallible, without error, and complete. Knowing that allows us to have a source for checking everything someone claims about our faith.
How to go about reading Scripture:
1) read the passage IN CONTEXT, with PROPER interpretation and evaluation, and think on these things
Here’s some questions to help you with this:
1) Who is writing/speaking?
2) Who was the original audience?
3) What do the verses before/after say?
4) What do the chapters before/after say?
5) What does the rest of the Bible say about this?
6) What’s the historical, cultural, and/or geographical background?
ERRORS TO AVOID when reading Scripture:
1) Do NOT make the Bible say what you want it to say. It isn’t a book about us or to make us feel good. There will be texts that reveal things (sins) we need to correct in our lives. That’s not always easy or comfortable, but it’s necessary for us to be more Christ-like. We need to let the Bible say what God intended it to say.
2) Do NOT ask “what does this mean to me?” Again, the Bible isn’t about you. It’s God’s book. It’s about God.
That was a lot! But necessary. We had to learn all of this when we started reading our Bible. It’s just not taught today very often, but it’s critical to rightly understanding Scripture.
So without further ado, here is reading plan for Wandering through Exodus for 30 days. (Videos/links y’all might find helpful will be next to the text they are the most relevant to).
