90 Day Bible Reading Challenge
JANUARY 1, 2014- MARCH 31, 2014
I am taking the challenge of reading the Bible all the way through in 90 days. Would you like to join me??
WHY do the Bible in 90 Days Challenge?
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 your 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.)

Details/Requirements
1. Because we are reading quickly (45 minutes- 1 hour each day) we will not actually be studying it. We are reading the Bible like reading a novel.
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/or e-mail
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.

Count me in again! Last time i crossed the finish line waaaay behind schedule BUT i am so thankful that i stayed with it and did indeed finish. :) The thing that hit me was the completeness of The Word, that it was not many stories but ONE beautiful story of God's great love for man. This probably sounds funny but i was so struck with God's holiness. Something about reading through so quickly kept it all so fresh...
Hoping with God's help to do it again. Such a blessing for my little girl to be leading her mom in this great endeavor!
