My Bible Reading
Femina (Nancy Wilson) wrote on 1-21-08 concerning her Bible reading schedule. Like her I too attempt to read at a regular schedule. A friend of mine (more like my spiritual father/mentor) encouraged me to read from both the OT & the NT daily. He was reading about 2 chapters each day from each testament. This sounded like a good idea and thought that I could incorportate it easily. However, over time I have found my self reading closer to 3 chapters daily from both the OT & NT. What this format does is allows me to read the OT about once a year and the NT over the same time period at three times a year. I start at Genesis and Matthew and read through each book respectfully thereafter. I have also taken up the challenge by Dr. David Jeremiah to read the Book of Proverbs each month. I look forward to this task. Happy reading!
