40 Days Through The New Testament

This podcast is led by Pastor Rusty Small at Liberty Baptist Church in Appomattox, Virginia. Listen as he guides you through all 27 books of the New Testament in preparation for Easter.

The season of Lent —a 40-day period (excluding Sundays) of reflection, repentance, prayer, and spiritual renewal—mirrors Jesus' 40 days of fasting and temptation in the wilderness (Matthew 4:1-11). It prepares our hearts for the solemnity of Good Friday and the joy of Easter Sunday. One transformative way to observe Lent is by reading the New Testament daily to deepen one’s understanding.

To help with your reading journey, listen to a new podcast with Pastor Rusty that overviews each New Testament book. Beginning February 18th, hear clear, practical overviews of New Testament passages, illuminating the Scripture and connecting it to daily life and Christ's redemptive work—ideal companionship for Lent.

We hope you are able to follow along in the reading schedule and listen to the podcast.
