Participating MoSt Church members are reading through the New Testament this year at the pace of one chapter per day. We call this project The Christ House (TCH) because as we read, we’re paying special attention to everything that is said about Jesus Christ. As we read, we also determine to memorize one verse about the Christ from each book of the New Testament. We call these memory verses “Christ verses.”

During the first 28 days of May, we’re reading Matthew’s Gospel. Come the end of the month (May 29-31), we’ll reflect on all we’ve read. The Christ verse to memorize as we work through Matthew is Matthew 16.15-16 which reads: “He said, ‘And what about you? Who do you say that I am?’ Simon Peter said, ‘You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.’”

It’s time for a bit of a “technology fast” around here. That fast starts today (Mon.; Apr. 29) and will run through the end of May. God willing, I’ll resume posting on Sat.; June 1. Until then …

I will sing of your strength! In the morning I will shout out loud about your faithful love because you have been my stronghold, my shelter when I was distraught. (Psalm 59.16)
