give it another go

Remember last year when I was going to read through the Bible in a year? Well, I did really well for a while and then it was all over the place. So...

I'm trying again but this time I'm starting with the New Testament. Here's the website again, you can choose from several versions and schedules.

Anyone want to join me?

hmm...i have tried the 'Bible in a year', too, but it's not for me - i get too caught up in trying to get it all read and end up not soaking in what i read.
but there are a few specific books of the Bible i really want to study, so my goal this year is to study those a little bit every day.

I started reading my Bible again this year too. And, just like you I always fizzle out. I have the chronological Bible in a year and I love it! After teaching the kids chronological history and Bible together I am getting a TON more out of it and hope I'm a much better teacher. What is sad is that Christian has been reading his Bible every night and I wasn't. He is on path to read it in 3 years...a chapter a night. He's already done a year. Now that's motivation!!!!
