There are loads of different ways of reading the Bible and engaging with God’s word. At Devo, we thought that during lockdown could be a great opportunity to try out a few of those methods and see if we can help you find one that suits you. To do this, have produced a 5-day Bible reading resource that will provide you with step by step techniques for reading the Bible in a range of ways.

Each day there will be a short video on the @community_church_youth instagram account where a member of the youth team will be sharing some of their reflections on using the method for that day. The reflections will also be shared on the Community Church Blog.

For the purposes of the plan, we are suggest that you pick out a Psalm (maybe one on the shorter side!) and focus in on a different verse or section each day. The youth team will be reading Psalm 145 so if you want to work through with us, the videos will probably make more sense!

This devotional is a way of gaining ideas and providing some structure for quiet times. While we have produced it for teenagers and young adults, there’s nothing to say that you won’t find it helpful if you’ve graduated from youth church. There are also no rules about how you use the resource. You don’t have to complete it over the 5 days we’re posting about it, or even go through every step each day.

Looking forward to taking this journey with you, hope you find it useful.

Enjoy!
