The 2021 Birmingham Bible Reading Marathon will be held remotely again this year. This year, the entire Bible will be read, Genesis to Revelation, on the National Day of Prayer, tomorrow, Thursday, May 6, 2021, by assigning 15-minute segments of Scripture to be read aloud from each participant's home, or wherever you prefer. If reading from home, it will offer a special time for families to read God's Word together. Participants are encouraged to read outside if possible, or even share your reading on social media. You may select any convenient time on May 6th to complete your reading. The purpose of speaking the living Word of God over Birmingham will still be accomplished.

To sign up to read, click here. 

As well, please take a moment to pray at noon with thousands of people across the United States, as we observe our National Day of Prayer on May 6. 

We will start praying promptly at 8:00pm central on Thursday, May 6. The Zoom call and phone number are at the end of this email.

We know the truth: we are commanded to forgive; withholding forgiveness can be harmful to our well-being. Yet, even knowing these realities, sometimes we choose to withhold forgiveness. The operative word is “choose.” We have the freedom to choose to forgive. But a lot of times that is a difficult choice to make. Usually, the desire not to forgive is the result of finding ourselves in circumstances where we have been hurt, rejected, or disappointed. And, while your circumstances are hurtful you have every reason to feel hopeful. God would not give us a command we were not able to accomplish. Most people enter their adult years not emotionally prepared to forgive someone that has hurt them. Being told, as a child, to forgive others is not the same as having the desire in your heart to forgive that person. And, God is more interested in our heart. Even, knowing this, the path to forgiveness is rarely simple or quick. If you or someone you are concerned about is being affected by a feeling of unforgiveness, please go to libertypark.org/biblical-counseling for help.
