Just like the Emmaus disciples walked with Jesus on Easter Sunday afternoon and were amazed at all that he shared with them from the Scriptures, so this book will help you walk with Jesus through the entire Bible. The Bible reading guide will lead you on a two year journey through every book of the Scriptures. Choose your favorite Bible translation, and use the guide questions to help you journey through each day's reading. Many people try to read the Bible from cover to cover, Genesis through Revelation, and get bogged down after about three books into the Old Testament. This Bible reading guide starts with Matthew and the life of Christ, and tries to give you a variety on your Bible journey. The general pattern for this reading guide is a rotation of the five different types of books in the Bible: 1.New Testament history 2.New Testament epistles 3.Old Testament history 4.Old Testament prophecy 5.Old Testament poetry Five units of this general pattern will take you through the entire Bible with much less chance of getting bogged down. Each day's suggested reading has at least three questions to ponder and apply God's truths to your life. There are also brief introductions to the various books and extra insights to help you understand difficult passages. Above all, the guide questions are intended to point you to Jesus, no matter what book of the Bible you are reading. When Jesus explained the Scriptures that Easter Sunday afternoon, the New Testament didn't exist yet. He showed how he was the center of the Old Testament as well: "These are the Scriptures that testify about me" he said (John 5:39). The questions and comments in this book will help you see Jesus in every part of the Bible.
