In today’s busy world, finding time for meaningful spiritual growth can be challenging. However, the Monterey Park Chinese Baptist Church (MPCBC) has launched an inspiring initiative to read the Bible together in just 365 days. The initiative commenced on January 1, 2024, and follows the highly regarded “Reformation Reading Plan” by the Michigan District Lutheran Church, which can be conveniently accessed on the YouVersion Bible App.<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The Reformation Reading Plan is a structured approach to reading the Bible that allows individuals to go through the entire text in a year. This plan is inspired by the principles of the Protestant Reformation, a period of great spiritual renewal in the 16th century. The Reformers emphasized the importance of “sola scriptura” (Scripture alone) and “sola gratia” (grace alone) in understanding and living out the Christian faith.<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
