Have you ever wanted to read the entire Bible, but had trouble staying on track? Ridgeview Student Ministry is offering a class for 6th - 12th graders to read the entire Bible from cover to cover. We are going to motivate you and keep you up to date and informed on what you are reading. We will be reading through a Bible plan together and checking in on each other’s progress in order to motivate each other to keep going when the reading gets tough.
What happens if you miss a reading?
Each week the instructor will be summarizing the entire past week of reading and putting it in context with the rest of the Bible. If you miss a day...or even a week of reading the instructor will get you back up to speed so that you can participate in the classroom discussion. Even if you only attended the weekly class and routinely missed readings (not encouraged), you’d still leave the class with a good understanding of the metanarrative of the Bible.
What happens if you join late?
We want to encourage new students to join at any point in the year. Join anytime and pick up the plan where we are and you will be able to wrap around the following year to still finish reading the Bible in a year.
Why?
The purpose of reading the Bible, regardless of how long it takes you, is to hear from God and to grow closer to Him. This class cannot replace meditating on His word. However, this class is designed to help students get an understanding of the metanarrative (the big story) of the Bible so that when they zoom in and meditate on smaller sections of scripture, they will better understand the context.
