Building Healthy Families

Posted January 28, 2025

Building Healthy Families: Big changes are happening in our world. Someone once said, “If you want to know what is happening today, read the newspaper. If you want to know what will happen tomorrow, read the Bible.” The Bible is filled with God’s own words, given to teach, correct, and train us in righteousness. Reading and studying the Bible builds faith, changes our relationships, and prepares us for life. It helps us understand who God is and who we are. It builds trust and confidence in God and His good plan for us, which is especially helpful in times when we may be feeling overwhelmed, sad, or anxious about the future and what tomorrow may bring. If you’re not reading your Bible each day, how about starting today? (John 20:31) Ask your pastor for a reading plan or check out this one online at https://www.1517.org/oneyear.
