This week, we’ll finish up the last few chapters of the book of Acts, then spend most of our time in one of the most pivotal books in world history, Paul’s letter to the Romans.
Acts ends with one of the greatest, most detailed, real-life marine stories in all ancient literature. Then Romans gives us the Bible’s most detailed description of Christian theology. It’s also the book that inspired Martin Luther to start the Reformation which has altered all of history since that time.
The Bible Reading Coach podcast is designed to help anyone read through the Bible in a year. In 10-15 minutes each Friday, I’ll introduce you to the passage for the following week, including:
- What it’s about
- How to deal with challenging passages
- How the original readers saw it
- How it applies today
- And much more
After listening, take the next week to read the passage on your own. This time you’ll have a clearer understanding of it.

Want to Be Like Jesus? Show Up in Person
