June 17 — Hosea: A Faithful God and an Unfaithful People — Chronological Audio Bible Reading | Hosea 1–3 | Resolved to Read

In today’s reading from Hosea 1:1–3:5, we see God use Hosea’s painful marriage to picture Israel’s spiritual unfaithfulness—and His shocking, pursuing love. These chapters expose the seriousness of idolatry and wandering hearts, yet also reveal a God who promises restoration, a renewed covenant relationship, and a future turning back to “the Lord and to David their king.” Join us as we read through the Bible in a year—chronologically and thoughtfully.

June 16 — Jonah: Running, Repenting, and God’s Relentless Mercy — Chronological Audio Bible Reading | Resolved to Read

In today’s reading from the book of Jonah, we follow a reluctant prophet who runs from God’s call, is rescued in the depths, and then wrestles with the scandal of God’s mercy toward his enemies. Jonah’s story exposes our own resistance to grace, both in receiving it and in seeing it extended to others, and reminds us that the Lord is patient, compassionate, and committed to pursuing both rebellious nations and stubborn hearts.

June 15 — When Victory Breeds Pride — Chronological Audio Bible Reading | 2 Kings 14; 2 Chronicles 25 | Resolved to Read

In today’s reading from 2 Kings 14:1–24 and 2 Chronicles 25:1–24, we revisit the reign of Amaziah—a king who starts by doing what is right in the Lord’s eyes, yet whose heart is not fully devoted. After a God‑given victory, pride leads him into idolatry and a reckless challenge against Israel, bringing needless ruin. These chapters warn us how quickly success can turn our hearts from God, and call us to lasting humility and obedience instead.

June 14 — The Half-Hearted Devotion of the Kings of Judah and Israel— Chronological Audio Bible Reading | 2 Kings 13–14; 2 Chronicles 25 | Resolved to Read

In today’s reading from 2 Kings 13:20–14:24 and 2 Chronicles 25:2–24, we see kings who do some of what is right in the Lord’s eyes, yet never fully give Him their hearts. Amaziah wins a great victory but quickly slips into pride and idolatry, while Israel’s kings experience temporary successes without true repentance. These chapters remind us that partial obedience and outward victories are not enough—God desires wholehearted devotion and trust.

June 13 — “Return to Me”: The Day of the Lord in Joel — Chronological Audio Bible Reading | Joel | Resolved to Read

In today’s reading from the book of Joel, we hear a powerful call to wake up, repent, and return to the Lord in the face of devastating judgment. Joel uses the image of a locust plague and “the day of the Lord” to warn God’s people, yet he also holds out stunning promises of restoration, God’s presence, and the outpouring of His Spirit. This short but weighty book reminds us that the Lord is both holy and gracious—slow to anger, abounding in steadfast love, and eager to welcome all who turn back to Him.
