stand in the rain

On the Road to Emmaus  (Luke 24)

The Word for today:
1 Samuel 16


We hope you'll join us as we stand in the rain!

"Stand in the Rain" is a daily three-year Bible reading program with a promise, a purpose, and a simple plan.

The objective is individual spiritual growth through personal Bible reading. If you want to see why this Bible reading initiative is called "Stand in the Rain," just look up Isaiah 55:10-11. There you will see that Bible reading has a purpose. The purpose is to grow us!  That's God's promise:

As the rain and the snow
come down from heaven,
and do not return to it
without watering the earth
and making it bud and flourish,
so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater,

so is my word that goes out from my mouth:
It will not return to me empty,
but will accomplish what I desire
and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.  (Isaiah 55:11)

The plan couldn't be simpler:  You read "The Word for today" (posted at the beginning of each article) and we'll teach you the big picture of Scripture.

So enough with the intro.  We'll get with the program for real tomorrow,  when David takes the stage...
