Welcome to October!
As we step into October, our Bible reading journey brings us to some of the most epic and foundational stories in all of Scripture—key highlights from the "Torah" or "Pentateuch" (Genesis through Deuteronomy)!
Our reading this month moves through three powerful phases:
Concluding Genesis (Oct 1 – Oct 9): From Abraham’s test of faith to Jacob wrestling with God, and Joseph’s rise from prisoner to Prime Minister of Egypt. You will encounter the famous declaration: "You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good."
The Great Redemption of Exodus (Oct 10 – Oct 24): Witness Moses at the burning bush, the Passover redemption, the parting of the Red Sea, miraculous manna in the desert, and the giving of the Ten Commandments and the Tabernacle.
Wilderness Journey in Leviticus, Numbers, & Deuteronomy (Oct 25 – Oct 31): Skipping lengthy ritual codes to focus on the Day of Atonement, the call to love your neighbor, the spies entering Canaan, and Moses' heartfelt encouragement to a new generation.
These stories are vivid, personal, and full of hope. As you read, imagine walking in the characters' shoes and witnessing God’s loving sovereignty through every trial.
Key Themes for October:
God’s Purpose in Trials: Learn through Joseph’s life that even when human intentions fail, God is actively working for good (Genesis 50).
Redemption & Law: Experience the mighty deliverance at the Red Sea and the loving boundaries of the Ten Commandments (Exodus 14, 20).
Provision in the Wilderness: Discover how God feeds His people daily and calls them to remember His faithful care (Deuteronomy 6, 8).
