@sarah-h I think that’s a great idea too. I sometimes don’t think I’d have enough time, but that’s because I fill it with other stuff. Like 2 1/2 hours on my laptop. How would I be able to help you?

@hope Sign of the Shield sounds great.
*I still like Crowned Powerless, but I understand that some titles, no matter how awesome, just don’t work*

@hope, If it is Christian nonfiction, you know, commentaries, studies, etc. I guess it would count as ‘Bible’; you can really interpret the challenge however you want. You can be super strict and only read the Bible, or, if you really want to, you can expand it to nonfiction Christian literature.

@Hope it was an absolutely beautiful speech. The gist of it was, politics is not about candidates or parties or even government. It’s about an ideal— about liberty. And whenever it becomes about anything else, it becomes invalid. People are in charge of the government, and we have a voting process to let the voice of the people be heard, so…[Read more]

@Hope it was an absolutely beautiful speech. And I know what you mean— lots of people were very upset that he ‘broke his promise’ to support the nominee, and his response to them was perfect. Basically, he pointed out that the field has changed. When he pledged to support the Republican nominee, (roughly paraphrasing his own words here) he did…[Read more]

So, did anyone here watch Ted Cruz’s convention speech a few days ago? If so, what did you think?
Personally, every time I’ve been sure he had to fold under the pressure, he’s come out stronger than I remembered and twice as impressive. This time was no exception. It’s really encouraging to see someone sticking up for the truth, even if it doesn’t…[Read more]

Thanks, @bluejay, for tagging those others.
@daeus, I’m glad you like the idea. What’s the Bible bee?

Here are a few more tags so people see this awesome idea. Come and check it out.

Thanks, @kate-flournoy.

@ClaireC I would love to, but unfortunately I don’t think I’ll have time for any reading tomorrow other than my morning devotions. Actually… come to think of it, I do this a lot. Summer is really busy for my family, and frequently I don’t have time for any reading besides the Bible in the morning. So… I guess I will be doing it, it’s just not…[Read more]

I’ll just tag some people so they see this. @bluejay and I are going to do this tomorrow; Would any one else like to join us? @kate-flournoy, @daeus, @c-c-lane, @overcomer, @ingridrd, @gretald.

@bluejay, Job is one of my favorite books! I am doing a reading through the Bible plan by John MacArthur Jr.; it gives you three years to read through the New Testament in very great detail and one year to read through the Old Testament. So I read 7 chapters of the N.T. over and over again for a month. And I read 3 chapters of the O.T. ever day.…[Read more]

@clairec That’s great. Do you have any idea where you are going to read? I’m going to read through Job. I’ve been reading a study book on Job and it’s amazing. So I need to explore this book further. I have a feeling that there is more to Job than what meets the eye. 🙂

Sure @bluejay, I would love to!!

@clairec This is a great idea. I have heard that reading lots of different books helps you to write better and the Bible is the best book in the world.
Would you like to do it tomorrow with me? I would love that. 🙂
