SUNDAY SCHOOL

BIBLE READING PLAN FOR 2023

For 2023, we will offer the Navigator's Book-at-a-Time Bible reading plan. Hard copies will be available on Sundays and in the church office; you can use the provided pdf as well. We are also working to implement this reading plan in our IPC app for your smartphone or tablet. In the year ahead, ask God each day to speak directly to you from the Scripture portions you read. Be expectant, and let your continual exposure to God’s Word reshape your attitudes and behavior as you gain a better understanding of every part of His written testimony to us.
