Judges 2:11, 12

The Essential 100® Bible Challenge is a simple tool to read through the Big Story of God's Word. The reading plan is based on 50 Old Testament and 50 New Testament passages. Continue with the sixth part "The Judges." ®Produced by American Bible Society in partnership with Scripture Union, Inc.

Not sure where to start with the Old Testament? This 5-day plan shows you the Big Picture of its story. You’ll discover the problem of humanity, why the world needs saving, and how everything points toward God’s coming solution. After these 5 days, you’ll read the Old Testament with new eyes.

With insights and devotions drawn from The Jesus Bible , this seven-day reading plan provides examples of God staying true to his covenants throughout the Bible. During this week, you will be inspired by the mercy of God and faithfulness of Jesus to remember to uphold your own promises to God.

Christmas is the perfect time to look back and reflect on all that God did for us in sending Christ to our rescue. As you read this devotional, I pray that you will remember your own rescue and walk into the New Year with the confidence that He will rescue you again from everything that you will need to walk through on the road that lies ahead.
