New Reading Plan 

September 5th - December 4th


Join us in our Fall 2022 Peninsula Grace Reading Plan! This Bible reading schedule is meant to enhance your time in God's Word by following along with our sermon series. On Sept. 11th we'll start a 5-week series entitled "Transformed by the Story Teller." Our reading plan will take us through key passages that trace the big story of God's redemption in the Bible. 

After that, beginning October 16th, we'll move into a series through Paul's letter to the Ephesians. As we study Ephesians together, we'll read through several other books that shed light on the letter's background and that emphasize similar themes. 

As always, if you miss a day, just jump back in with today's reading! We're excited to dig deeper together!
