Is anyone interested in reading the bible in 90 days.

I did this program with Pastor Jamal Bryant, reading the bible in 90 days and I really enjoyed it and learned alot.

All you have to do is read a certain amount a day. But if you fall behind you are responsible to catch up and keep on schedule.

I was just wondering if there were people out their who would like to do this with me.

Here is the schedule, I will probably start in a couple of days, and just wanted to see who wanted to go on this journey with me.

Also, if others want to do this, we could encourage each other and even talk about what we read everyday. We could even talk about certain scripture if someone has questions about a particular scripture that is not understood.

Wow, my friend, that is an undertaking. I am currently reading through the bible now, but with 2 jobs and 3 kids I don't know if I could tackle this. Best of luck to you. I am in the middle of Song of Solomon and chipping away, day after day, week after week. God bless ya.

If you can't do it now, you can still do it one day. I really enjoyed reading through the entire bible and I'm about to do it again. It's really not that hard, you just have to have time.

Quality, not quantity. Make sure you can meditate and listen to what the Spirit is saying.

um.. the AVERAGE person. CAN READ. the entire bible in 40 hours !

The entire new testament is the same as a 275 page book, I can read that in one day.

Let me tell you one of the greatest 'habits' to clutch on to. Habits are very hard to break - whether it be a good one, or a negative one.

Lets start a GREAT habit to ENJOY !!

ON any given month, you read, the chapter, that corresponds to the day of the month.

The book of Proverbs has 31 chapters - most months, have 31 days.

Why ? do I say the book of Proverbs ? It is in the center (heart) of the bible, (as well as psalms).


Proverbs has MORE WISDOM for daily living, than any other book in the entire bible.

so, on day one of a month. you read proverbs chapter 1, day two, chapter 2. etc.

In one years time you will have read THAT book, 12 times, in 10 years, 120 times. guess what ?? your gonna learn something that very few people have ever learned or understood !!

AND.... ... .. if you memorize just 3 verses a day.. .. in one year you will have the entre book memorized !! all 31 chapters !!

To have that: in your heart, it's worth more than all the riches in the world combined!

Ok-bye

Thank you, but I think I would rather read through the entire bible. I have already but I want to go back through. I want to know the bible and understand what's in it. I think for me I plan to read through the bible and then just start over. It works for me.
