Diana had a passion for the word that motivated all of us. I’ve currently taken a challenge to read the Bible in 90 days and am about 10 days in. It’s a marathon, let me just tell you. Total focus and time and energy goes into that goal every day. But, I love it…I look forward to it every day. I hope to post a few jewels I run into along the way here. If any of you would like to join the readings, email me and I’ll be happy to give you more info on that. Basically, you read about 15 chapters a day, and it takes about 45 minutes of reading. Less time than most of us watch TV each day. It’s waking my mind up every day. I have absolutely loved it. I hope the short time frame will keep me on track!
Hi Maggie
I read about your 90 day Bible reading plan at your blog(s) [sorry for being a lurker] your reading sounds really cool. I like your insights into what you read I’m encouraged by how you seek the message(s) of scripture.
I’m reading Job this week and planning to go through the other “wisdom books” for the rest of this month but I will stay tuned to your thoughts at both your blogs– and here whenever you post here– thank you so much for everything.
Love
Diana

hey
Im new to this site and saw the 90 day reading the bible thing and its just what i NEED, I d love to discuss some of the things I read with those of you who are doing it to, I m currently not in a study and I do so miss it my church is under construction and we are having fewer services and no ministries up and running and I’m feeling a bit weak . this sounds like just the kind of challenge I need. hope to hear from some of you!
I started the 90 day bible reading yesterday
I regret any time I do not faithfully read my bible
I waste to much time watching movies that often violate what I believe for the pleasure of being entertained. May Jesus continue to convict me for my flesh
.
I’ve got a friend at church and my two oldest sons reading as well and my two youngest followed our lead and read a couple chapters too! Im excited about what God is going to do with all this bible reading !
my freind (josleen ) at church suggested I take notes about what God speaks to me from the word and I thought It was a great Idea so we are both doing that as well . I started in Matthew and she in genisis and my oldest son in genises and younger son in Matthew.
there are many things God has dealt with me on since starting to read
like the phrase the blind leadeth the blind I dident realize it was in the bible it is Matthew 15 around verse 15 in the phillips translation it made the remark about the pharisees being blind leading others blindly and them ending up in a pit
and in 16 : 25 or so phillips
It phrases that very familiar scripture like this if any man desire to follow me he must give up any rights to himself
Wow ! I love that its so all out for Jesus!
and in 19 : around 19 vs phillips
it says about divorce that moses allowed it because they knew so little about the meaning of love!
like I said I really had a great time in my bible today and yesterday
sorry Ive gone on and on
any of you reading let me hear what God has done
his word is alive
I thank him for it
and for the challenge this site has given me
read on as I willl and lets see what God will do with us

We did this as a church in the summer. At the conclusion, we had a special service to share what God had taught us. There was not one person who participated that finished unchanged. I need to do it again!
