The Bible, the best-selling book of all time. Have you ever actually read it? It is the most-owned and least read book of all time. It is often misquoted and incorrectly interpreted.
Some have the idea that in order to read and comprehend the Bible one must be a scholar or carry a religious title. Some have been poorly taught that the Bible is merely a book of allegories or metaphors. Some spend much of their time seeking how they can discount the Bible from their academic ivory towers.
The Bible has stood the test of time and attacks. It is the eternal, inspired word of God. Its primary message is the redemption of fallen man through the substitutionary sacrifice of Jesus Christ.

The Bible, the best-selling book of all time. Have you ever actually read it? It is the most-owned and least read book of all time. It is often misquoted and incorrectly interpreted.
Some have the idea that in order to read and comprehend the Bible one must be a scholar or carry a religious title. Some have been poorly taught that the Bible is merely a book of allegories or metaphors. Some spend much of their time seeking how they can discount the Bible from their academic ivory towers.
The Bible has stood the test of time and attacks. It is the eternal, inspired word of God. Its primary message is the redemption of fallen man through the substitutionary sacrifice of Jesus Christ.
It is understood clearly through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. God has given us His eternal word so that we may know His heart and experience His love. He gave us the Bible to read, to receive and to apply in every area of our lives.
Imagine five churches in Fountain Hills all joining together to read through the New Testament in 12 weeks. Imagine all the people of God in Fountain Hills reading, for themselves, the whole New Testament.
Imagine your personal knowledge of God’s word increasing as you read His word. Well, you don’t have to imagine it; you can be a part of it.
The reading schedule is available at any of the five participating churches. In fact, we will be happy to supply a Bible to those who do not have one.
Participating churches are Christ’s Church, Pastor Don Lawrence; First Baptist, Pastor Tony Pierce; Fountain Hills Christian Center, Pastor Todd Forrest; Calvary Chapel, Pastor Rick Ponzo; Desert Creek Fellowship, Pastor Rod Warembourg. Take the New Testament Challenge!
