Reading the Bible?
So I haven't been reading the bible on a daily basis as I would like to be doing. This is mostly because I don't have a set schedule of reading like we had this summer. So I am here now to ask whether or not any of you guys have a daily reading schedule that you are currently reading through. And are you willing to share it with me/us? Or if you just have any suggestions that would be cool. Also, it would be wonderful to share with each other each day or even just each week what we have been seeing and learning as we read whatever we are reading. Just like we did this summer...except through the internet!
I just randomly read the first chapter in Galatians today and was struck by verse six:
"I am shocked that you are turning away so soon from God, who called you to himself through the loving mercy of Christ. You are following a different way that pretends to be the Good News" Galatians 1:6 (NLT)

This verse made me think about how quickly I have turned away, not from God, but from the Christ centered way we were living in Kenya.
i echo your thoughts exactly. i had been reading the bible regularly every day... but as school has become increasingly pressuring and work has devoured my life, i haven't been reading as much as i'd like. so good call on this post michael :)

Michael you're right. I've done the same...though I'm in full time ministry, I've found myself away from the daily immersion in Christ that we had there. Any kind of consistent reading or devotion would be great. -Matt
i'll 3rd that! i was doing well for awhile, clinging onto what we had in Kenya, but as life has sped up and become task driven, i have lost time in the day to spend in the Word and in silence... i have been searching for the past few weeks for a devotional or reading schedule. i am thinking about doing "A Call to Die" again... but I also really just liked going through books of the Bible and discussing them.
Thanks for the reminder and encouragement that I'm not the only one who has turned away! Love ya'll!
