Bible Reading Plan
One of the best ways to grow as a disciple is to read and reflect on scripture daily. At Victory Point, we are following a daily Bible Reading Plan (BRP) to grow together in following Jesus. We encourage you to pick up a BRP bookmark with all the daily references next time you are at Victory Point, or click here to download a PDF version.
Don't forget to listen to the companion Victory Point Bible Reading Plan podcast.

Regularly
Every day you are given a passage to read that others at VP will be reading as well. We suggest finding a consistent 15 minutes every day to read and pray the daily passage.
Lightly
Although we’ve assigned scriptures to certain days, it’s up to you when and how you engage these scriptures. If you miss a day or even many days, don’t sweat it. Just pick up with today’s scripture and ask God if you should just let the rest go.
Prayerfully
Engage the scriptures in a quiet space. Pause to invite God’s presence before reading. Read the passage slowly at least twice. Then spend time with God. Three questions might guide this time: How is God getting my attention? What is God saying to me? What will I do in response?

How is God getting my attention?
Read the passage several times to get a general understanding of the passage, then begin to notice which word or phrase is sticking out to you. Pay attention to what part draws you in, makes you curious, frustrates you or confuses you. Expect God’s word to cut you to the heart (Hebrews 4:12). Dwell on that part and allow yourself to get more curious about why this part is getting your attention.
What is God saying to me?
Now that God has your attention, listen to Him (Luke 9:35). Instead of determining what to do, pause to first ask God what He might be saying to you. Maybe the passage helps you know Jesus better. Maybe it makes you think of something going on in your own life or in your relationships. In all of this, ask God what He is telling you about His character, about who He is to you. Also ask God what he is saying about who you are, your identity. “God, I thank you that you are ____. I thank you that I am ____.”
What will I do in response?
James encourages us not to be just hearers of the Word, but doers of it (James 1:22). The most important part of your prayer time is to ask God how you can live differently today in light of what He’s said to you. It might be hard to reorient your entire life at once, but you can at least find one way you can obey this passage today, find one way to pray this passage today, or identify one person you can share this passage with today. If you allow God’s Word to change your day every day, little by little your whole life will be transformed.
Prayer
How can we pray for you?
At Victory Point Church, we deeply believe in the transformative power of prayer. Prayer is a cornerstone of our faith. It connects us to God. Through a rich prayer life, one can experience God's presence and power in profound ways.

Counseling Services
Everyone needs help at times, whether you're preparing for marriage, dealing with anxiety, or battling depression. Asking for help can be challenging, but God cares about our whole selves. That's why we partner with Brent Ellens, PsyD, a Christian counselor in Holland. Believing in the value of counseling, Victory Point subsidizes the cost of these appointments for those who call Victory Point home.
Brent Ellens, PsyD

Brent has been in full-time clinical practice since 2001, at Pine Rest Christian Mental Health Services and in private practice, and has been partnering with Victory Point since 2002.
Dr. Ellens considers it an honor to walk and work collaboratively with people as they navigate the sometimes difficult journey of life, working to problem-solve, process life’s challenges, and develop healthy coping mechanisms. Dr. Ellens feels called to work with people from a variety of backgrounds, and from ages 12 and up, and has the experience and education to deal with a variety of issues, including: Anxiety, ADHD, Depression/Mood Disorders, Marital and Pre-Marital Counseling, Grief and Loss, and Spiritual and Religious Issues.
