My 2011 Resolution: Read Through the Bible

I don’t make new years resolutions. They always sound good in theory but never seem to pan out. Maybe it’s just me (but I doubt it).

This year needs to be different. Let’s face it, it’s embarrassing to admit that although I have been a Christian my whole life, I have never read through the entire Bible. Sure, all 66 books have seen the light of day at one point or another, but I have never even tried to read everything God felt I needed to know about Him.

I know I am not alone in this admittedly sad Christian condition. The cure is simple: Read the Bible! To help facilitate the cure, I added some resources to the St. Luke’s web site. A link on the home page takes you to the online ESV translation of today’s readings. The church calendar now includes the same information for each day. A separate page provides more details about the reading plan & some other tools to help this years resolution be different (and better) than all the rest): http://www.stlukesreno.com/through-the-bible-in-a-year.aspx. The best part is, you can start today. Actually, the best part is, you get to learn more about God!

Check it out and let me know what you think. And have a Happy New Year!
