(On the November 8,2023 Podcast, Take Ten with Pastor Don, I talked about a web site that offered Scripture Writing Plans. The following article talks about the impact of Scripture writing and also includes the web site, along with instructions for how to obtain the monthly Scripture Writing Plans.)
A few years ago, I started writing out Scripture. I started with the Minor Prophets. I was teaching through them with a group of students and since I had read them several times already, I decided to try something different. I bought a notebook, and wrote in pen, not on a computer, each of the 12 Minor Prophets. I noticed as I was teaching how I could recall more things as I was teaching than I had before. I did the same for some of Paul’s letters and the book of James.
I was sold. I have made writing out Scriptures a part of my daily discipline off and on for the past few years.
It takes a little more time. But instead of playing computer games, I find myself reaching for my notebook and spending time writing Scriptures. For me, it is a good thing. I’m not going to say it is something for everyone. But I do believe everyone should try it and see if it’s something you would benefit from.
About a year ago, I discovered a ministry web site that offered “Scripture Writing Plans.” Currently they have 24 different plans. They are designed to be done daily and are set up for 30 days. The ministry is Love Worth Finding.
The web site is: www.lwf.org
It is the web site of the late Adrian Rogers that is run by his family, friends, and others who are keeping his sermons, articles, and books alive to bless others. I’m sure Adrian would be greatly blessed to know of the blessings he continues to be through these resources.
When you get to the web site, use the search option and enter in: Scripture Writing Plans.
You will need to enter your name and e-mail address. They will send you a download of the plan you select. Then you can print it out. (You will receive an e-mail from the Love Worth Findng Ministry. But you may find benefit in those as well.)
There may be other sites that offer Scripture Writing Plans as well. If you know of some, let me know and I will pass the information along.
Or, you could be like me, purchase a notebook, open your Bible, and just start writing.
