Bible Reading Plan
We’ve released a 28 day Bible Plan on You Version to help you work through Matthew 1-4 as well as supporting Old Testament scripture throughout our “Find Hope” series.
These first few chapters in Matthew reveal who Jesus is: fully human, fully divine, Immanuel – God with us. We will learn together what it means to follow Jesus and step into His kingdom of light.
You can also do the Bible reading plan with friends through the You Version App and write reflections to share with one another each day!

Generations
God’s promise to send a Saviour to redeem Israel is made clear in the genealogy of Jesus and the generations before His birth, from Abraham to Joseph. God is faithful to save His people by sending His Son – Immanuel, God with us.
Fulfilled
Jesus is born, the promise fulfilled and the Saviour is here. King Herod hears of the news and, seeking to kill Jesus, wipes out all the newborn sons in Bethlehem. Joseph and Mary flee to Egypt following an angel of the Lord’s warning, before returning to Nazareth.
The Holy Spirit and fire
John the baptist prepares the way for Jesus. As Jesus is baptised in the river Jordan, the heaven’s open up and the Spirit of God descends like a dove and God declares “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.”
Light has dawned
Jesus begins his ministry, revealing His kingdom of light to the world. Jesus endures forty days of temptation in the wilderness before He begins to preach the good news, calls His first disciples and performs healings and miracles.
