Almost There!

I am only 18 months behind, but the end is near! My 2008 (yes, 2008) New Year's Resolution was to read the entire Bible. I am only 2 months away from finishing! Some books are not easy to get through and have required sheer determination to read. For me, many of the "prophet" books at the end of the Old Testament are not easy. It is difficult to understand what many of the prophesies are referring to and difficult to make much of it relate to my everyday Christian life. I am sure that using a study guid book would be helpful.

To help motivate myself in this final drive home here is a list of the books that I have read:


Old Testament

Genesis

Exodus

Leviticus

Numbers

Deuteronomy

Joshua

Judges

Ruth

1 Samuel

2 Samuel

1 Kings

2 Kings

1 Chronicles

2 Chronicles

Ezra

Nehemiah

Esther

Job

Psalms

Proverbs

Ecclesiastes

Song of Solomon

Isaiah

Jeremiah

NEW TESTAMENT

Matthew

Mark

Luke

John

Acts

Romans

1 Corinthians

2 Corinthians

Galatians

Ephesians

Phillippians

Colossians

1 Thessalonians

2 Thessalonians

1 Timothy

2 Timothy

Titus

Yay! That is awesome. This is my 2009 resolution and I have kept up with it so far. I bought a Bible designed for you to read the Bible in one year, so that has really helped. I've really enjoyed it! Congrats are in order for you!
