“All Scripture is inspired by God and is profitable for teaching, for rebuking, for correcting, for training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.” -- 2 Timothy 3:16-17 HCSB
INTRODUCTION - Its very tempting to read the Bible as ordinary literature. But there is so much more to the Word than just a collection of nice stories. The Bible is God's wisdom and His plan for mankind. It is a handbook for living a successful life. Every story reveals how to live by faith in God's Kingdom. The Kingdom of God is simply God's way of doing things. When you do things His way, you will never fail!
As you read each Bible story, meditate on the truths revealed and see how they apply to your life. Read the story in various Bible translations for an even better perspective of difficult passages. Use the faith-building confessions at the end of each Bible story to build your faith. Always remember faith comes by hearing the Word. The more Word you place in your heart, the greater the wisdom and divine revelation you will receive. God's Word will positively change your life!

The Birth of John the Baptist - This story is based on the angel Gabriel's announcement to Zacharias of the birth of his son John. Even though Zacharias was a righteous man, he still had some doubt concerning what Gabriel had said. God in His mercy gave him a gentle reminder that every Word from God can always be trusted.
Mary, Gabriel & the Birth of Jesus - This story is based on the angel Gabriel's announcement to Mary of the birth of God's son, Jesus. Mary, a simple virgin from Nazareth, had enough faith to trust God's Word and be the mother to the world's Savior.
The Centurion & Faith That Impresses God - This story is based on Jesus healing the Centurion's servant found in the book of Matthew & Luke in your Bible. The Centurion, a Roman officer and Gentile, demonstrates simple, yet powerful faith in God's Word. God doesn't want a bunch of religious nonsense, just people who will simply trust Him and His Word with all their heart. That's the kind of faith that impresses God! This parable is found in Luke and perfectly illustrates God's incredible capacity to love and forgive. If you haven't read this parable lately, read it again and meditate on all the truths so brilliantly portrayed.
Simon's Net-breaking, Boat-sinking Catch of Fish - This story is based on Simon's abundant catch of fish found in Luke in your Bible. Simon had fished all night with no success. He needed some fish. Jesus needed a place to preach. When Simon let Jesus use his boat, it opened the door for Jesus to meet his need with a net-breaking, boat-sinking load of fish.
NEW! Palm Sunday Parade - This Bible story is based on Jesus riding into Jerusalem on a donkey. Found in all 4 Gospels in your Bible, we celebrate Palm Sunday to remind us that Jesus has come and is now with us for all eternity.
