Read the Bible through in 2009

I am challenging all my church members (and anyone else reading this) to read the Bible through, from Genesis to Revelation, in 2009. Adventists used to be known as "people of the book" and had a reputation that they knew, studied, and followed their Bibles. But I meet many Adventists who are not very familiar with God's Word.

So, my main New Year's Resolution will be to read my Bible through and encourage as many others as I can to read theirs through, too.

I will be including a link to a day-by-day reading guide soon. This will help us keep pace (we're doing this together!), and I'm encouraging members to discuss what they're reading. I will also be preaching on passages from the previous week's reading, so let's keep in step.

May God bless each of us as we read, study, and meditate on His Word. "The entrance of Your words gives light; It gives understanding to the simple" Psalm 119:130.
