Join The Journey (JTJ) is a realistic daily Bible-reading plan from Watermark Community Church that (at least in 2023) takes the reader from Genesis to Jesus.
Features
- Five days a week
- Extensive devotional support including podcasts and printed journals for adults and children.
My Thoughts
- As described in the introduction of the Join the Journey Vol. 1 journal, this Join The Journey started in 2005. The lessons learned from nearly 20 years of experience shines through the thoughtfulness of the plan and supporting resources.
- Like other plans, I appreciate the weekday rhythm as well as the acknowledgment of the church calendar with unique readings for Holy Week and Advent. (This looks to be a new addition for 2023.)
- In addition, the devotional resources appear to be rich and artfully done.
- While the 2022 plan covered the New Testament, the 2023 the plan covers the Old Testament. Although this is a helpful balance to 2022’s focus, not reading any New Testament until Advent feels like a gap.
