New Year New Plan

This Blog is a work in progress. I started out trying to provide a daily devotional to supplement my church members' Bible reading schedule as we worked our way through the Bible in one year. Unfortunately, I didn't think about doing this until well into the year. So I initially planned to continue the devotionals after December and into the new year until I had devotionals for one full year.  Then come about November a hectic pace sapped me of time for creative thought and the blog became sidelined.

Then, also in November, our staff really wanted to offer the challenge again since so many members provided such positive feedback over the experience. But this year we scaled the challenge back a little in an effort to encourage the success participation of more people.

So now I am excited to be a part of our challenge to read the New Testament through in a year. I have developed a schedule that will walk readers through the Gospels Parallel (or harmonized) between January through Easter (Late April). Then from May through December, we will read the remaining Epistles at a rate of a chapter a day. The entire schedule encompasses Monday through Friday readings, leaving the weekends free for catch up, getting ahead, or supplemental reading.

A schedule can be downloaded from our website at www.fbcsulphur.org. Look for the challenge anouncement on the left side, click it, and download the PDF of the schedule.

This year, I will attempt to provide regular supplemental devotional thoughts along the way. I'm not promising daily offerings, but I will give it my best shot!

Thanks for following!
