Additional information about Daily Bible Study, Fall 2023
Theme: God Provides
This fall, Daily Bible Study presents a series of readings supporting the theme “God Provides.” These readings explore the basic human needs of food, water, and shelter and the vulnerability that comes to those who lack access to them. They remind us of God’s gracious provision in meeting these needs and our responsibility to help secure these necessities for those who lack them. These daily readings come from Old and New Testament texts, prepare us for the lessons in Adult Bible Studies, and are written by Timothy Merrill, Taylor Mills, and Sue Mink.

Unit 1
Food
Readings in this unit remind us of God’s generous provision of food for humans and wild creatures and of our responsibility to offer sustenance for those who are hungry and in need.
Scriptures: Exodus 16:2-9, 31-32 | 1 Kings 17:16; 19:8 | Mark 6:30-44 | Luke 14:1-15
Spiritual Practice: Feasting

Unit 2
Water
Scripture uses the motif of water in many ways, which the readings in this unit explore. Water represents a metaphor for chaos, historical enemies, judgment of God, devastation of drought-stricken land, and personal distress. Water is also a gift from God for the flourishing of all creation, refreshment for body and soul, and source of eternal life embodied in Jesus. Thirst for water and provision of water are metaphors for the human relationship with God.
Scriptures: Genesis 21:9-21 | Exodus 17:1-7 | Psalm 42 | John 7:32-44 | Matthew 25:31-46
Spiritual Practice: Creation Care

Unit 3
Shelter
The economic and social vulnerabilities that lead people to experience homelessness today do not have ancient analogies in Scripture. Even so, the physical security of home is a relevant theological idea. Although various biblical texts may make it easy to focus our attention on spiritual shelter in God’s presence, those who experience such a home in God find resources to extend hospitality and care through various means with those who today are experiencing homelessness.
Scriptures: Exodus 29:42-46 | Psalm 27 | Deuteronomy 8:1-20 |John 1:1-14
Spiritual Practice: Hospitality
