In January Big Daddy, my esteemed pastor and faithful husband encouraged and exhorted his flock to get on a yearly Bible reading plan, and I must say I am not only blessed by it, but enjoying it thoroughly. I have even been keeping up with it, for the most part. You can find it here if you're interested. In times past I just kept reading through the NT, over and over. Periodically taking time to do a specific reading of say the Major Prophets, or some other theme like that; and just continually working my way through he OT. This particular plan is working well for me now in that it has a couple of chapters from the NT, a couple from the OT and a Psalm. It skips around a little too. I find that whatever I'm reading has a timely purpose for what I'm facing on a given day or week. That's not surprising, given the wonderful ways our Lord works, but it is amazing!
I begin a new job tomorrow. I am grateful for that.
Baseball season is coming soon.
Oh yeah, and I forgot to add that I finally began reading Velvet Elvis by Rob Bell. I don't know how it will work into my already full reading plate, but someone loaned it to Big Daddy and I may as well try it. I will say that I am skeptical though, and unimpressed so far.

It's a great way to get your reading done, and I'm glad your thoughtful husband suggested it. There are so many good plans to choose from, so a person really has no excuse to leave their Bibles untouched.
For your reading enjoyment, there's a couple of posts on this great subject here and here.
Thanks for sharing, and keep up the good work. BTW, congrats on the new job.
Yea! Congratulations on the new job! I hope to read more about what you'll be doing. And, kudos on your Bible reading plan; you're an inspiration to me =-)
