Engage With Scripture Together

Yes, you can join Reflections at any time. While each lesson follows the order that the biblical story is told, each one can also stand alone. You can participate in any order and do not need to be concerned about "falling behind." If you ever miss breakfast and lunch, you don’t have to eat them before you can eat dinner. Eat with us now!

Reflections Bible Study features audio and written elements, making it easy for anyone at any time to study and reflect on the biblical story.

You’re welcome to engage with Reflections Bible Study however you’d like. We have designed the audio component as an easy way for anyone at any time to participate. And for those who would like to go deeper into studying the Scriptures on their own with a group, we provide the “Go Deeper” questions and related video(s).

Reflections Bible Study goes along with the One Story that Leads to Jesus reading plan, selecting one passage of Scripture from each week’s reading. If you subscribe to the One Story weekly emails, the corresponding Reflections Bible Studies will be linked in each week’s resources.

For Reflections, we start the reading plan on January 1st and end on December 31st. So if you’ve started the reading plan at a different time, your reading will be out of sync with Reflections. However, in the One Story weekly email, we will always link to the relevant Reflections Bible Study for whichever week of reading you’re in on the plan.

You can if you’d like to! However, to more fully understand the biblical story and all that its authors are communicating, we typically recommend starting the reading plan in Genesis.

You can find an archive of our earliest Bible Studies (first called Church at Home) here.

Reflections is following along with the One Story that Leads to Jesus reading plan, which orders the books according to our own "Storyline" ordering. Storyline combines the approaches of the Traditional and TaNaK ordering, with the main difference being the separation of prophetic books in the timeline to before, during, and after the exile. To see the different ordering of books according to Traditional, TaNaK, and Storyline, check out our Bible Reader. And for further details about biblical book ordering, we recommend watching our video "What Is the Bible?"
