Bible in 90 Days Reading Challenge 2013

90 Day Bible Reading Challenge
JANUARY 1, 2013- MARCH 31, 2013

I am taking the challenge of reading the Bible all the way through in 90 days. Would you like to join me??

Spending time in God's word is important. More of Christ in- More of Christ out. (For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks. Luke 6:45b)

Last year after searching for an online accountability group already in existence I stumbled upon a 90 day reading challenge and got really excited. :) It combined my desire to spend time in God's Word with my desire to read the entire Bible through. A group of us completed the plan- some in as little as 87 days... some took a little longer but they stuck it out and completed it with God's help. 

(Although this is a 90 day plan you might not finish in 90 days- it might take 6 months or longer. You never know what will come across our path during the next 90 days. It's okay!! PRAY and ask God to help you through even if you can't keep up with the plan. You will be blessed! God's word is powerful and you will know Him better the more you read, pray, and apply.) 

 I will be following the 90 Day Bible Challenge which is being used in several churches across America. CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE PRINTABLE BOOKMARK which outlines the plan.

(I am planning on starting a facebook page for this group!!!!!)

More details/requirements:
1. Because we are reading quickly (45 minutes- 1 hour each day) we will not actually be studying it.
2. You must R E A D the Bible. (Occasionally listening to the Bible is okay but try to read it 90% of the time.)
3. I will NOT be interpreting anything for you. We'll let the Holy Spirit take care of that.
4. You MUST check in every Monday and comment on the facebook page that you are still reading with me. You can share where you are at- you might be ahead or behind. 
5. Be HONEST. If you are failing then admit it. An accountability group won't work if you aren't honest.

Remember if you commit to this… I commit to you.

I commit to…
  • pray for you by name
  • to encourage you
  • send you weekly email reminders
  • NOT commentate or interpret the Word of God for you, but help you seek His truth for yourself
  • Give you a place to rejoice and to struggle and even fail
How can you join???
1. Send me a message- facebook, e-mail, text (614-314-9767) letting me know you are joining me/us.
2. Print off a copy of  the bookmark. (link above) (also available on the YouVersion Bible app)
3. Pray and ask God to help you in this big commitment.
4. Join the facebook page.
5. Invite friends to join. Send them to this blog entry.
6. Pray for ME!
