Join us on an incredible journey as we read through the chronological Bible in 2025! We hope you will tune in each day as we walk through Scripture one passage ...
Day 91 | Judges 3:31–6:40Israel’s cycle of sin and redemption continues in Judges 3-6 as Deborah and Barak lead the nation to victory over their enemies, with an unexpected heroine, Jael, delivering the final blow. But after 40 years of peace, Israel falls back into sin, leading to Midianite oppression. God raises up Gideon, an unlikely and hesitant leader, to rescue His people. As Gideon wrestles with doubt and tests God’s call, we see a powerful reminder that God often chooses the weak to accomplish His plans. Will Israel finally break free from their cycle of rebellion?Hosts: Derek Ewalt, Ben TaylorVisit bellevue.org/bible for more resources and to download our reading plan.#ChronologicalBibleJourney #ChronologicalBible #BellevueBaptistChurch

Judges Begins: A Nation Without a King | Day 90
Day 90 | Judges 1:1–3:30As we enter the Book of Judges, we witness a new era in Israel’s history—one marked by a tragic cycle of sin, oppression, repentance, and deliverance. Israel fails to fully drive out the Canaanites, leading to compromise and spiritual decline. A new generation rises that does not remember the Lord, resulting in repeated rebellion. In His mercy, God raises judges to rescue His people, yet they continue to turn away. This passage reminds us of the dangers of half-hearted obedience and the faithfulness of God to redeem those who call on Him.Hosts: Tanya Franks, Noah SidhomVisit bellevue.org/bible for more resources and to download our reading plan.#ChronologicalBibleJourney #ChronologicalBible #BellevueBaptistChurch

Joshua’s Farewell: Choose Whom You Will Serve | Day 89
Day 89 | Joshua 22:1–24:33The conquest era comes to a close as Joshua sends the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh back to their land. However, their decision to build an altar nearly sparks a war due to a misunderstanding. Joshua then gathers all Israel to deliver his farewell address, urging them to remain faithful to God and avoid idolatry. His famous declaration—“As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord”—echoes through history as a challenge for every believer. This passage reminds us of the importance of choosing whom we will serve and fully committing to God's path.Hosts: Ben Taylor, Michael PritchardVisit bellevue.org/bible for more resources and to download our reading plan.#ChronologicalBibleJourney #ChronologicalBible #BellevueBaptistChurch

The Role of Cities of Refuge in Ancient Israel | Day 88
Day 88 | Joshua 19:49–21:45; 1 Chronicles 6:54-81We see the final distribution of the Promised Land, including the establishment of six Cities of Refuge—places of protection for those who unintentionally killed someone. The Levites also step forward to claim the cities promised to them, demonstrating God's faithfulness in fulfilling His word. As the Israelites settle into their land, Scripture reminds us that not a single one of God’s promises failed. This passage is a powerful reminder that God’s timing is perfect, His justice is fair, and His mercy is always present.Hosts: Tanya Franks, Derek EwaltVisit bellevue.org/bible for more resources and to download our reading plan.#ChronologicalBibleJourney #ChronologicalBible #BellevueBaptistChurch

The Promised Land Is Divided | Day 87
Day 87 | Joshua 18:1–19:48The Israelites gather at Shiloh to finalize the division of the Promised Land. With seven tribes still waiting for their inheritance, Joshua instructs them to survey the land and cast lots, fully trusting God to determine their portions. This moment signifies the fulfillment of God’s long-standing promise to Abraham, proving His faithfulness across generations. Even in the seemingly mundane details of land division, God's sovereignty is at work, guiding His people to their ordained places.Hosts: Noah Sidhom, Ben TaylorVisit bellevue.org/bible for more resources and to download our reading plan.#ChronologicalBibleJourney #ChronologicalBible #BellevueBaptistChurch
