Take the Challenge

Our church is challenging us to read through the Bible in a year. I was hesitant to commit to it because I hate committing to something that I'm not sure I can complete. During the summer there will be days that I won't have time to read this much, but I have decided to accept the challenge. I can always read ahead.

I've read through the Bible, but never in its entirety in a year. We are using a program that breaks it up nicely, so you aren't just reading it straight through. We will read two chapters in Old Testament, a chapter in the Psalms and one in the New Testament.

So who wants to take the challenge with me?

Today is:
Genesis 1 and 2
Psalm 1
Matthew 1

yes, the Lord has spoken to me as well in this area. Let's work on it together. How have you been doing so far???

It's easy at the beginning. Give me a month, then I'm sure I'll struggle a bit. :)

I've decided to do something along these lines, too. My aunt gave me a Christian Daily Planner for Christmas & it has all the chapters of the Bible listed & then several reading plans. I like it b/c I can check off each chapter I've read & pick & choose which book I want to do next. So far so good but it's only day #3!
