The 260 Journey

The 260 Journey is not a yearly devotional.

It is a study tool for a pastor, a motivational tool for a devoted Christ-follower, and a starting point for a new Christian. It transcends New Year’s resolutions and goes beyond a Bible commentary on a shelf. The 260 is a Bible companion that can be started in January or June or any other time. It is a strategy and a resource for believers at any phase in their Christian walk.

Why call it the 260?

The New Testament contains 260 chapters, and there are 261 weekdays in every year. The strategy is one chapter a day Monday through Friday with weekends off to finish the entire New Testament in a year. 

The 260 will take a verse and sometimes a number of verses each day from that day’s New Testament chapter and explain, inspire, and bring it to life. Personal stories, historical illustrations, quotes, and cross-references help make each chapter more easily understandable and applicable. Pastors will find a nugget to help them clarify a Bible verse for their sermon and new Christians will have the light go on in their comprehension of the Bible.

260 Journey is designed to take two hundred and sixty days to read a chapter a day. you are going to have a problem sticking to the rule. You will be sorely tempted to jump to the following chapter. Tim has an original mind, seeing things that will make you say, “Why didn’t I see that?” or “Wow. I never thought of that.” His sense of humor, his being widely read, his love for Jesus, his reverence for the Word and approachableness with people will be very apparent.
