316 & LSB Project Update:

December 2023

•  The LSB is now available on STEP Bible! If you are not familiar with this free website and app, here is an endorsement from LSB Translation Team member, Abner Chou:

   

  “I am thrilled to hear that LSB is going to be part of the STEP Bible platform. I have watched it with great excitement ever since it first came out and have recommended it to my students often. While the Church is blessed with many aids to assist in studying God’s Word, STEP Bible provides an excellent set of tools that are not only free but easy to use, accessibly bridging the language gap and allowing for people to study the Scripture with greater accuracy and depth. I highly appreciate both the people behind the software as well as the program itself!”

   

  - Dr. Abner Chou, President of The Master’s University & Seminary and John F. MacArthur Endowed Fellow

Justin Peters Daily Bible Reading 

• Justin continues to post his daily reading of the LSB and will finish by year’s end. If you are looking for a new spiritual discipline to adopt in 2024, consider listening all the way through the LSB with Justin’s narration. His daily readings follow the famous Robert Murray M'Cheyne Bible Reading Plan.

New Year and New Habits

As we close out this Project Update and the 2023 calendar year, we want to highlight a few tools we provide in our Free Resources page help you live a more Scripture-saturated life in 2024.

• For Bible Reading: Bible Reading Chart - Self-paced, check off as you read each chapter with the goal of getting through the entire Bible by the end of 2024. Find it under the NASB 95 tab.

• For Scripture Memory: a variety of topics, available in both NASB 95 and LSB. Print and post these in conspicuous places to help saturate your mind and memorize Bible verses.

• For Prayer: download the sample week of Dr. Varner’s Handbook for Praying Scripture. If you find yourself drawn to a new habit of praying Scripture each day, consider getting a copy of his book for yourself and others. Find the download under the 316 Books tab.

In January, we will be attending the following conferences:

• National Founder’s Conference 2024: Remember Jesus Christ (Jan. 18-20)

• Speaking The Truth In Love Conference: Conviction - Truths Worth Dying For (Jan. 26-28)

Come by and say Hi!
