and with great power the apostles were giving their testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great grace was upon them all...

So we're starting something new in our MDG, and it was inspired by one of our brothers speaking up and challenging the rest of us to really do something about our desire to get more into the Word. Everyone in our group was talking about it, and it just took one brother speaking up one night for something to happen.

And that thing is this: a new blog ring featuring all of us sharing, at a minimum, what verse/chapter we opened up that day, every day. So, some days, all you may see is this:

Today: Joshua 7

Other days you may see something a bit longer.

Regardless, what I'm excited about is that this will no doubt help us as a group start to see all of the awesome things God is putting on our hearts, showing to us through his word, not to mention the stuff that we don't see that he shows us as we open up the Bible more regularly as disciples.

In the title I quoted Acts 4:33, and the reason why is, just as the movement of the Holy Spirit among the disciples and apostles manifested itself in the sharing of their testimonies with one another and outsiders, so I see this blog ring as being a chance for us to share our mini-testimonies with one another. Every time a bible verse is posted, every time a story is shared, we'll be stepping into God's story together. The steps might be small, but they'll be in the right direction, and that's getting me EXCITED!
