How often do we start the year promising to read the Bible more? We know it gives us a better attitude toward the stuff of life, and that regular Bible reading helps us grow in our relationship with God. Yet sometimes our good intentions fade as the year goes on. Well, in 2015, the whole Salvation Army is getting behind you, helping you read through the entire New Testament by New Year 2016! To coincide with The Salvation Army’s 150th year, the ‘Boundless: The Whole World Reading’ challenge kicks off on 5 January, giving all of us the chance to reflect on God’s timeless message through the writings of the New Testament. Each week, people will read five chapters from the New Testament—so, if you fall a little behind, you’ve got two ‘free’ days a week to catch up. And there’s even a children’s challenge, so parents can help their kids get excited about the power of God’s Word in their lives, too. Salvation Army corps (churches) around New Zealand, Fiji and Tonga will have some supplies of the special Whole World Reading booklet, but you can also head to salvationarmy.org/biblechallenge and get involved that way.
