40 day Bible

Hey guys. so here we go. in this post are listed the dates and what our reading assignments are for those particular dates. first here are some things you should know.

The purpose of this endevour is not to fully understand the scriptures but rather to gain perspective. To read the entire Bible in such a short and intense period will hopfully give us some idea for how vast Gods plan for our salvation is. Above all let God use all the extra time spent in the word to work in your heart.

This is a heafty and intimidating task .. so heres the plan. If you are gettin over stressed, school work is suffering, or relationships... take a break!. taking one or two days off can be just what you need. rather than struggling to keep up . just skip a day or two. then you can go back at the end of the forty days and "fill in the blanks" (read any books you skipped).

I hope that we can all continue to pray for eachother and can all grow stronger in our faith.
