Those are good points! I’m using the You version app, but I might check out the Bible project app! I don’t really have too much to add, but I enjoyed reading what you guys thought!

So I havenāt been reading with the same plan yāall are doing, but I have been going through Genesis on my own. I think the thing thatās stood out to me the most is the beautiful balance of Godās justice and mercy. Iāve only made it as far as after the Flood, but still, I can see that God was so merciful to these people. He was just in giving punishment, but there were so many times where He could have enacted a harsher judgement, but He didnāt because of His mercy. Time and time again, He showed these people His mercy and itās amazing to look at my own life and see how God has been merciful to me every day.

Those were all super great points. I don’t really have anything to add right now, but I do have a question for the people who were following the three chapters a day plan:
Are we still doing that? I’m officially on Exodus 1. I’ve been a little behind the past few days, but I think I’m caught up.

(I think I’d be reading the last two or three chapters of Genesis today… But then I’d be all caught up.)
It’s still working for me! So I’m good unless you all want to change the plan…

Hi! How’re you all doing? Are we all on Leviticus now? TBH, I’ve gotten a bit behind, but I think we should be on chapter 22? And how’s it going for everyone?

February 10, 2024 at 6:30 pm #175608@beth-torres So, my family has started reading 1 chapter of Genesis and 1 chapter of John most school mornings, and I’ve been reading through the New Testament letters, so I don’t think I’m going to be able to keep up with this. I still might pop in occasionally like @esther-c but I won’t be doing the reading anymore.
Sorry to drop out like this!

February 10, 2024 at 10:41 pm #175618Okay! For some reason I thought Leviticus was way longer than it is. Lol.
Oh that’s fine! Lol.
Oh its fine! š I understand, that would be a lot to keep up with.

Have a carrot.February 20, 2024 at 4:38 pm #176352February 20, 2024 at 4:41 pm #176353Hi! Are you guys still doing this? I’m honestly having some difficulty with the three chapters a day, especially with the section of the Bible we’re in. Could we maybe try to do two chapters or even one a day?

February 20, 2024 at 7:41 pm #176361Hey! Yep, Iām still doing this! Iām fine with bumping it down to one or two chapters a day. Maybe we can tweak the amount we read depending on what book weāre in (like if itās a shorter book we could read a few more pages a day)
