Since I finished my first Bible read thru on Friday, I am now starting over. During my last read thru, God brought me Aaron, Brian, and David to stay accountable with. I keep praying that God will use this new discipline of mine to encourage others to read thru the Bible as well.
This time I am going to read it thru in a different order. The last 4 months I have read 10 chapters a day; starting with 5 in Genesis, 3 in Psalms and 2 in Matthew. This time I will be reading the Old Testament in the TaNaK order and then the New Testament; starting with 4 chapters in Genesis (the Torah); 3 in Joshua (the Nevi’im); and 3 in the Psalms (the Ketuvim). Once I finish the Torah, I will begin reading in Matthew.
Will you consider reading thru the Bible with me?

That is fantistic… you made it. Truth be told I had my doubts when I heard you were going it alone but you did it!
George Muller read it 4-5 times a year as he got older, I want to be like him.

Truth is I didn’t do it alone…but sort of. I had 3-4 people who would always ask me about it. I’ve been meeting on Tuesday mornings for breakfast with a guy in the dorm. He and I have been reading 5 chapters a day together. Another guy that I run with twice a week is also reading thru, but in a different place.
My read thru is always the highlight of my day, and I can’t imagine not taking the time for it now.
