My Long Walk began with a ‘Long Drive’ to Plainfield, IL for a Chicago Daily Audio Bible Family Gathering. The first gathering I was able to attend was in Plainfield, IN earlier this year in March. Hmmm…something about that name, I guess!
Larry’s Diner was the spot where young and old met up with each other and Brian, Jill, China and Max. While only a few of us had met previously, we all had one thing in common…that of traveling on the journey through the Bible in community by way of the Daily Audio Bible podcast each day.
The diversity of the DAB family and each one’s story makes the family gatherings so unique and special. Lives have been and continue to be changed by the impact of scripture. Marriages are strengthened. Prayer requests are shared…answers are experienced. Children are actively listening and growing in their understanding of the Bible…and what it means to be a follower of Jesus wholeheartedly.
My heart was warmed by the experiences of that evening and the discussions around the tables. It is an awesome thing to see the impact of God’s Word on the lives of others.
God means what he says. What he says goes. His powerful Word is sharp as a surgeon's scalpel, cutting through everything, whether doubt or defense, laying us open to listen and obey. Nothing and no one is impervious to God's Word. We can't get away from it—no matter what.
Hebrews 4:12-13
