40 Days Through the Bible: An Explorer's Guide to the Book of Books

For those who long for a panoramic view of Scripture, this book dares you to engage in a new kind of exploration: reading through the Bible in 40 days.

But it doesn't leave you alone with the dare.

Anyone exploring new territory needs a map. 40 Days Through the Bible maps out your reading path, whether you are taking the long way of the forty-week plan or the forty day shortcut. Like a trainer, it offers helpful advice for preparing for your journey; like a guide, it tells you what to look for along the path.

This book includes:

• A plan for reading the Bible in forty days
• An optional plan for reading the Bible in forty weeks
• A short summary of key emphases in each reading
• Charts with additional insights
• Questions for review and application at the end of each reading
• Word counts for each reading
• Tips for reading more quickly and completing the challenge successfully Ultimately, we explore the Bible to know God! If the chief end of man is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever, then fellowship with God (and the worship that ensues) forms the core of our existence as humans. Reading the Bible plays a role in this: it glorifies God when we prioritize and delight in His words, and those words are a key means by which we enjoy Him now--not just in the seemingly distance eons of eternity.
