GOSPEL CONVERSATIONS: New Testament Reading Plan 2026

Join Alex and Brenda on a yearlong journey of formation and friendship in Scripture!

As we trace the life of Christ through the New Testament, we’ll learn to receive God’s love more deeply — and let that love overflow into how we care for those around us. Step by step, conversation by conversation, we’re becoming disciples who make disciples.


Join the Conversation

This isn’t a class to attend or a program to keep up with. There are no weekly meetings, no required method, and no pressure to “do it right.”

We’re committing to opening God’s Word regularly and to learn with one another, not in isolation. So invite a friend or meet with others to read, reflect, pray, and grow together as God’s Word shapes your life.

Alex and Brenda will be walking this journey alongside you regularly sharing our own devotional tools, study methods, counseling and discipleship applications, and reflection prompts to help connect Scripture to everyday life. But this community will come alive when everyone contributes!

We’re inviting you not just to read but to participate. To share insights, questions, prayers, struggles, applications, worship music, art, or tools that are helping you listen to God more closely.

See How Love Shapes Every Conversation

As we read, we’ll look for one big thread woven through every passage: LOVE!

Not love as an abstract idea — but love that anchors us, forms us, and teaches us how to live well in the midst of real life. Love that meets us in the many roles we play each day as we carry joy and grief, faith and fatigue. All while being faithfully kept by God.

Each day, we invite you to pause and reflect on these three themes:

  • God’s Love for Us: Love that Anchors the Soul

  • Our Love for God: Responding in Worship

  • Our Love for Others: Living Love in Real Encounters
