Around 40 chapters a day

This morning our text in church was in Genesis, and that made me think of the in-depth Bible study a few of us Igniters had last summer, and that made me think of the cohesiveness of the Bible, and that made me think of my intention to read the Bible in a month. Some month.

While I was paying attention to the sermon and having this recognitive memory fest, it also occurred to me that today is August. Oh yeah, the month I was going to read the Bible in. That's right now. So I'm a day behind, but I've been camped out on my bed with my Bible this afternoon, it's been nice.

If you're cool, you should read through the Bible in August with me. I may or may not be posting this here to generate the positive peer pressure to make sure I actually do it. That is all.

Also, Laura, you and your family rock my face off. For the record!

Sorry!=( August just won't work. I have VBS at my church this week(those annoying, catchy songs are running through my head the moment) and the only reading I possibly will be doing is trying to learn my part for each days skit. VBS is more work than it should be......

Dood, I hear ya. We just finished VBS this past week at my church - it was an intense five days. Though, I was with the 3rd and 4th grades, and they rawked face. The songs though, were more awful than usual. ;P What theme are you doing?

We're doing the VBS put out by "Answers in Genesis." The songs are catchy, but the theme isn't as anoying as the one we had a few years ago....It was some cheesy spy/special agent deal.

Go for it!! That gives me an idea to do it in 12 days at La Vida. That would be sweet. After all, I don't know what else I'm going to be doing. Especially during the 48 hrs. That would be a world record.
