Weekly Truth

Open Your Bible

John 1:1-5

Scripture is God breathed and true. When we memorize it, we carry the good news of Jesus with us wherever we go.

Over the past several weeks, we have memorized John 1:1–5. Practice saying the verse out loud as you reflect on all that you have learned throughout your reading of John’s Gospel.

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 All things were created through him, and apart from him not one thing was created that has been created. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of men. 5 That light shines in the darkness, and yet the darkness did not overcome it.
—John 1:1–5

    I have tried going to the homepage and I keep getting sent back here for the current reading plan. I guess I’ll catch up tomorrow.

  3. Brenda Vincent says:

    Amen

  4. Kelly (NEO) says:

    The first reading for the Revelation pplan can be found on the SRT homepage.
    Praying the glitch is fixed soon

    1. Mari V says:

      I thought something wasn’t right. But I still can’t find it on the website. Thankfully I have the study book this time. Will check back after I read the scriptures. Thank you Kelly.

      1. She Reads Truth says:

        Hi Mari!

        We hope to have this resolved soon! Make sure to keep checking the App and website for Revelation Day 1! Thank you for your continued patience and understanding.

  5. Wendy B says:

    The podcast is available on all the platforms so hopefully the rest will be addressed soon. :)

  6. Peggy W says:

    I am new to SRT. I have a question…Is this community part only for those that do a monthly plan? I’m not sure what the difference is from just going to the website and reading the daily plan and doing the subscription. I do the digital subscription. I also have not received the Revelation plan, although I did receive the digital Advent plan last week.

    1. Wendy B says:

      There seems to be a technical issue today. I only access it through the website it does nit seem to be available as of yet.

      1. She Reads Truth says:

        Hi Wendy!

        We are working to resolve this issue and hope to have Revelation Day 1 on both the app and website soon! Please keep checking back!

    2. Jane K says:

      @Peggy The community is for everyone. The subscription sends you the study books automatically with each study. Having the she reads truth app is the easiest way to follow long whether you purchase the study books or not. Welcome to the community!

      1. Peggy W says:

        Thank you, Jane! Excited to be here

    3. Cee Gee says:

      I just use the website. All are eligible and WELCOME here in this community. Glad to have you, PEGGY! ☺❤

    4. Mari V says:

      Welcome Peggy W. We’re SO glad your’re here with us! Yes, there seems to be some tech issues on their website this morning. I have the study book this time, I’ll post the scripture readings above.

  7. Maria J says:

    I can’t see the new plan. It isn’t available on HRT either.

    1. Maria J says:

      I just found it in my email but the links don’t work from there.

      1. She Reads Truth says:

        Hi Maria!

        We hope to have this resolved soon and encourage you to keep checking back!

    2. Wendy B says:

    Is the new plan not up yet or is it me?

    1. Penni Courts says:

      It’s not just you. I don’t have it either.

      1. She Reads Truth says:

    Amen. So blessed to have light. To have truth at our fingertips.

  12. Rhonda J. says:

    We had communion today at church, and it was followed by that powerful song..The Blood by David Funk and Bethel. It just gets me every time, the whole story of God, making us right with him by the gift of Jesus. In his blood, the lamb and perfect sacrifice!! And John is telling us that summation as well!! He came, he lived, he died—for us. Nothing we can do to deserve it on our own, except to say yes!

    These lyrics get me—I (I had to stay for the following service to hear it all again!!)
    It’s never been about performance, perfection
    Or striving for acceptance
    Let me tell you, it’s only by the blood
    It’s never been about deserving or earning
    It’s a gift that’s freely given
    Let me tell you, it’s only by the blood

    Oh does anybody want to be holy and righteous
    Purified and spotless
    Let me tell you, it’s only by the blood
    Does anybody want to be worthy, forgiven
    Justified, really living
    Let me tell you, it’s only by the blood

    Beautiful. Powerful. Love.

    SHINE, JESUS, SHINE!
    .
    Shine, Jesus, Shine by Graham Kendrick
    Partial lyrics:
    Lord, the light of Your love is shining
    In the midst of the darkness, shining
    Jesus, Light of the world, shine upon us
    Set us free by the truth You now bring us
    Shine on me, shine on me
    Shine, Jesus, shine, fill this land with the Father’s glory
    Blaze, Spirit, blaze, set our hearts on fire
    Flow, river, flow, flood the nations with grace and mercy
    Send forth Your word, Lord, and let there be light
    .

  15. Samantha M. says:

    Could use some prayer – for marriages and families to be restored and husbands to step into their God-given design to love and lead. Prayers also for healing I’m fighting an infection antibiotics are not working. Thank you SRT community for your encouragement and insight and fellowship.

    1. Cee Gee says:

      Praying! ❤

      Praying Samantha M!

  16. Mari V says:

    I was still in bed when I received a text from my friend Gretchen (she introduced me to SRT) and said, she’s excited to start Revelation with me. I got the study book this time. GRATEFUL for this beautiful community! Loved studying JOHN with you all! I told myself, that as a gift for myself (and it’s a GREAT gift) to subscribe for the Subscription Box starting 2026!

    1. Jane K says:

      That’s awesome, Mari! You will love them.

  17. B says:

    I didn’t think I’d say this, but I’m really looking forward to the Revelation study! Seems like a number of pastors I listen to have done or are doing now a Revelation series. I have learned a lot but am one of those folks who needs some repetition for it to stick/make sense (not that it always makes sense in the human world…). I think it will be especially interesting in light of just finishing this study on John. Looking forward to all of your insightful comments as we learn together!

    Praying for requests.

    Sunday blessings,
    See you tomorrow!!❤️

    1. Cee Gee says:

      ❤ I recently studied Jen Wilkins’ Revelations study so I am looking forward to expanding on that, too. Excited to see your shares! ❤

  18. Michelle Paul says:

    It’s been a joy to be in John with y’all

  19. Wendy B says:

    As we wrap up this study and I read these verses again, another passage comes to mind from Col 1:15-20.
    ‘The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.’
    He is the creator of all and He is in it all; He has been and is a part of everything and the true light of the world. The life and work of Jesus, His example, teaching, heart for us sacrifice and forgiveness is a gift like none other. Thanks be to God.
    The hymn The Love of God (the version I like best is from Reawken Hymns) really encompasses the John study so well.

    Praying for your requests. Sunday Blessings SRT sisters.❤️

    1. Cee Gee says:

    Hello!
    I would ask for prayer for my mom. She got the news on Friday she has a clot in her leg following a procedure. The doctor she spoke to has her on a blood thinner and is hoping her body will absorb it. Thank you for praying.

      Praying her body responds as hoped. And praying God gives you peace as you are so far away.
