Year of the Bible
Sermon Series
Year of the Bible is a year-long, church-wide commitment focused on growing in Scripture and developing a daily devotional rhythm. Using the Tyndale One Year Bible, we’re reading the same passage together each day, and our weekly teaching builds directly from those readings. Our prayer is that God would ignite a hunger for His Word and form us into people who hear it, love it, and live it.
