Facebook Community

Join our “Read a Chapter a Day” community on Facebook! Each day, a new post will remind you to read a chapter. After reading and contemplating the text, discuss your scriptural insights with other readers. Together, we will learn more than if we were apart, so share everything that’s on your mind! From contextual research to spiritual experiences and from personal reflections to providential encounters, we want to hear about your experience.
