The Bible's Golden Chapters

Here are more than 80 of the Best Loved Scripture messages of all time. Some are beautiful and uplifting, others are instructive and challenging.

Friends, God blesses every spiritual work of our soul. And reading the Bible is one of the soul’s more important works.

The United Trinity Parish has a Fitness Priority for 2010-2011 which includes this Bible reading challenge: Read 400 chapters in the Bible, October 2010 through April 2011.

IF you suspect that this activity can help you achieve the greater spiritual fitness you desire, we recommend the Golden Chapter Challenge: Read the 80 Bible Favorites listed below 5 times each.

IF your goal is to help our small parish read 400 chapters every month, you may read these or any chapters, anywhere in the Bible, randomly or Bible book by Bible book

Keep us posted on how you are doing.
And God bless you.
