Reading the Bible Through

Planning to try to do this again in 2025.  Hoping to add to previous posts and to stay on the schedule better.  The schedule, in general, is to read 3 Bible chapters 6 days per week and 5 Bible chapters on the 7th day of the week.  May the reading of the Word bless you.  Previous post: I have long wanted to create an online space in which people could discuss Bible passages. To that end, this blog will show what chapters to read/listen to each day to finish reading the Bible through in a little less than 1 year. We will read 3 chapters every day except on Sundays. On Sundays we will read 5 chapters. If I calculated correctly, this reading plan will finish on Christmas day 2023.  Feel free to comment, reflect and/ or to agree, disagree and, perhaps most importantly, to agree to disagree and move forward together.   This is a place for civil and respectful discussion/reflection. Some scriptures to consider: Titus 3:9  But avoid  foolish controversie...

 This morning, 2 friends and I met to complete our reading through the Bible in 2023. We each read a chapter. Unfortunately, I had to leave abruptly to get to work in time. Still, I found it a beautiful and meaningful way to end.  It has been to difficult to keep up with reading/listening and blogging both. I prefer to lay in bed and listen to the Bible, but I can't blog laying down. I got behind in reading/listening and blogging. It was easier to catch up with the reading/listening than the blogging. The blog didn't go how I had hoped. I would have liked more discussion. I wish I hadn't been so behind in the New Testament, that I rarely made a substantial comment. Still, I'd' wanted to do this. I'm glad I did it.  May the Lord of Heaven and Earth bless you. Amen. 

Tomorrow, I'm going to meet for breakfast with 2 friends who have also been reading the Bible through this year from cover to cover.

 Who are the 7 churches? What do they symbolize? Could it be the walk, and, perhaps fall, of the Christian? 

 Made it Revelations!

 Trying to finish this before the year ends...

 I find Hebrews a difficult book to read. The "faith chapter" doesn't particularly move me. 

 Philemon is a curious book: sending a runaway slave home as a Christian brother.
