"I have for many years made it a practice to read throught the Bible once a year."
John Quincy Adams
It takes approximately 71 hours to read the Bible alond from cover to cover (although a church in Scotland reported doing it in 62 hours, 55 minutes!) Based on that pace, it would only take 12 minutes each day to read through the Bible in a year.
The Agape Class has decided to join St. Luke's and commit to read through the Bible in 2009. Who will make it? No body knows....but it is worth a try. We will try to blog about this experience and reflect on the readings at least once or twice a week. Check back in with us and let us know how it is coming. You can read the Bible online too at http://www.stlukesbible.blogspot.com/.
Yesterday Wendy Lambert talked about starting a Heritage Bible. A Bible that you use to read through and record/underline/write questions in margins.....the idea is that you have a tangilbe object to pass down your faith to generations to come. I think this is a great idea and now I plan to do the same thing. If all goes well, I hope to do Bible's for each of my children over the course of a year of their life.
