May 31 / Acts 14:1-12
Acts 14:1-12 Dear RTB’ers, Today, again a short reading, only twelve verses. Therefore they spent a long time there speaking boldly with reliance upon the Lord, who was testifying to the word of His grace, granting that signs and wonders be done by their hands. (v. 3) Luke makes a powerful statement here, that the …
May 30 / Acts 13:44-52
Acts 13:44-52 Dear RTB’ers, Today, only nine verses. But when the Jews saw the crowds, they were filled with jealousy and began to contradict what was spoken by Paul, reviling him. (v. 45) Here we see the Jewish leaders’ jealousy, even though in the previous verse “almost the whole city” had gathered to hear Paul …
May 29 / Acts 13:13-43
Acts 13:13-43 Dear RTB’ers, Today we continue with Paul and Barnabas on their first missionary journey, as they move on from the island of Cyprus to the mainland of modern-day Turkey.

May 28 / Acts 12:25-13:12
Acts 12:25-13:12 Dear RTB’ers, Today we return to Acts. Thus far in Acts the focus has mostly been on the church in Jerusalem and the apostles’ ministry in neighboring cities. Now the focus becomes the church at Antioch, some 300 miles north of Jerusalem, about twice as far from Jerusalem as Damascus. There are two …

May 26 / Exodus 18
Exodus 18 Dear RTB’ers, Let’s continue to pray for Mary G. as she recuperates from knee replacement surgery. It’s easy to forget that Moses was a family man, with a wife and two sons. We first met Zipporah when Moses had exiled himself to Midian after killing an Egyptian. There he married Zipporah. However, after …
May 25 / Exodus 17
Exodus 17 Dear RTB’ers, Let’s continue to pray for Mary G. as she recuperates from knee replacement surgery. More grumbling (Ex. 17:2-3), this time for lack of water and them “dying of thirst”. Previous grumblings have been fear of death from Pharaoh’s army (Ex. 14:10-11), bitter water (Ex. 15:24), and hunger (Ex. 16:3). Do we …
May 24 / Exodus 15:22-16:36
Exodus 15:22-16:36 Dear RTB’ers, Let’s continue to pray for Mary G. as she recuperates from knee replacement surgery – for her, for Len, for her medical team, and for her recovery. Today, wilderness wanderings, grumbling, quail, and manna. Yesterday we saw the first incident of the people grumbling against Moses (Ex. 14:10-11). Today we see …
May 23 / Exodus 14:1-15:21
Exodus 14:1-15:21 Dear RTB’ers, Let’s be in prayer today for Mary G. as she undergoes knee replacement surgery – for her, for Len, for her medical team, and for her recovery. Today, they’re gone! The Israelites from Pharaoh’s grasp and the Egyptians to the bottom of the Sea! The Lord delivers His people, but not …
