The ABC Bible Challenge...

It's been nearly six years since the last time we made some Bible Challenge booklets available for downloading. Back then, the challenge was to read your Bible 15 times a month and to have read in more than 20 different books of the Bible by the end of the year.  Thousands of the booklets were downloaded in three different languages: English, Spanish and French. (The English booklets are still available for download in the posts below this one.)

Now it's time for a new Bible Challenge, and it's called the Alphabet Challenge. It's going to be a journey, an exciting adventure of discovering who God is and what He is like.

The vision began when I and my enthusiastic little dog, a border collie called Maiki, set out to conquer the Trick Dog Alphabet Challenge. We had to come up with a dog trick for each letter of the alphabet. It was a lot of fun and we ended up creating one trick video in English and another in Spanish. (You can see the English video by clicking on the photo above.)

Since then, Maiki and other members of her trick dog team have been making trick videos for every letter of the alphabet. At the time of writing, we've released eleven videos and demonstrated 215 tricks.

Once we started on our journey of creating 26 alphabet videos during 2024, a new Bible idea was also birthed: why not study the nature and character of God, finding attributes of God that begin with the different letters of the alphabet?

The first little booklet, with some of God's characteristics beginning with A, B and C will be released during April as a follow up to a family service on that theme. Other booklets or individual quiet time papers will be released at different times during the year.
