The 3B Challenge

If you have hung around our congregation any length of time you have heard us mention the 3Bs and perhaps you were wondering what that is all about and where it came from...

The 3B challenge is something we encourage ourselves to do as a part of our discipleship lifestyle. It is Bible Before Breakfast. It comes from Job 23:12:

“I have not departed from his commands, but have treasured his words more than daily food.”
(Job 23:12 NLT-SE)

To show that the Word of God is more important to us than our daily good we simply read it before we eat our breakfast in the morning - pretty simple huh? But we believe it says something pretty powerful...

Around our fellowship we use the One Year Bible as our daily reader because it is broken up into 365 daily reading portions that take about 15 or so minutes to read.

There you have it the 3B Challenge... are you up to it?

Blessings

AAAAHHHH! THAT WAS ME SCREAMING WITH ENTHUSIASM!!

CAN I JUST SAY THAT EVER SINCE I STARTED GOING TO FREEDOM CHURCH IT IS THE FIRST TIME THAT I HAVE ENJOYED READING MY BIBLE, EVER!

BEFORE I HAD THE KING JAMES VERSION! WHOA! NOT FOR ME..
BUT WITH THE ONE YEAR AND IN THE NEW LIVING VERSION I FIND SO MUCH PLEASURE..

THERE IS NOTHING BETTER THAN SITTING AT THE KITCHEN TABLE WITH MY SON WHILE HE EATS HIS BREAKFAST AND I READ THE WORD! NOTHING IN THE WORLD..

IM SO THANKFUL FOR FREEDOM CHURCH AND ALL ITS AWESOMENESS. AND FOR ALL THE AWESOME PEOPLE WHO BRING IT TO LIFE..

MY HEART IS ON FIRE FOR GOD
