Welcome to another gentle reading in the Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible.
In this episode, we conclude the Gospel of Matthew with chapters 24 through 28, where Jesus speaks of the end times, shares the Last Supper, endures the cross, and triumphs in His resurrection. We then begin the Gospel of Mark with chapters 1 through 3, witnessing the early days of Christ’s ministry — His baptism, His miracles, and His calling of the disciples.
As soft music carries the words of Scripture, you’ll be guided through moments of divine prophecy, sacrifice, and renewal. Together these chapters reveal both the cost of redemption and the hope of new beginnings in Christ.
Let these sacred words comfort you as you rest in God’s love and the promise of resurrection life.
Highlighted Verses:
- Matthew 24:35 — “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.”
- Matthew 26:41 — “Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
- Matthew 28:6 — “He is not here: for he is risen, as he said.”
- Mark 1:11 — “And there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
- Mark 2:17 — “They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”
As you listen tonight, may these words bring you peace, reminding you that even in life’s darkness, Christ’s light never fades.
God Bless.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
