BIBLE
IN A ONE YEAR
INTRODUCTION – Have you ever agreed to do something, and then thought, “What was I
thinking!” That is a little bit how I feel with committing to read the Bible in
One Year. It is exciting and little intimidating, that is how I would describe what
I am feeling as I not only set out to read the Bible in One Year, but also
commit to publicly blog about it.
WHAT WILL YOU FIND ON THIS BLOG? I am reading
the Bible in a devotional manner. That simply means that before I read it I say a short
prayer asking God to speak to me through His Word. Each day I will post some
remarks.
My remarks are intended to be a
reflection about how a part of the passage has spoken to me. Sometimes those
reflections will be long, and at other times short. I might also share an
explanation or an opinion about a specifically difficult passage (or point you
in a direction where you might find some help). Finally, at times I will share
with you how I am doing with this daily discipline of reading the Bible. When
am I doing it, where am I doing it, when it is exciting and when it is like
being in the desert.
RESOURCES – I am using an English
Standard Version of the Bible and I am also using How to Read The Bible Book by Book by Gordon D. Fee & Douglas Stuart.
