Since this is my first attempt to ever read the entire Bible, I was hoping the habit and accountability would be ingrained in my daily routine within a few short weeks. Little did I realize it was only a matter of days for the Bible treading to pleasantly capture my daily routine. It must be from the Bible’s spiritual inspiration and wisdom combined with the fellowship of knowing so many others are reading the same scripture as I read each day. In fact, I found myself reading too far ahead, even reading the notes in my New Oxford NRSV Annotated Bible, and beginning to weaken that feeling of fellowship, so I had to slow the pace to resynchronize and regain that feeling of fellowship. I have not taken the step of going into Zabriskie’s “The Bible Challenge” though. I hope everyone is finding fulfillment as we progress through the Good Book together in a year. Warm regards, Colgate Salomon

I am excited to read the Bible with you, not only for the knowledge and ability to say, "I've read the whole thing," but for the wonderful things that occur when Scripture is read intentionally each day. Archives
