Paintedlady Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Anyone else starting a One Year Bible for the upcoming new year? I just got 4 new copies for each of us in the family and have a One Year Bible study guide on order to get us started. I'm excited about starting this together as a family and wondered if anyone else has done it before or is starting on the new year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mytwomonkeys Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 i'm not doing a bible study per se, but i do use becky tirabassi's bible (change your life daily) and it goes through the bible in a year. it just starts jan 1st of every year & divides the bible into 365 readings. in the past, i did do a "walk through the bible in a year" bible study by bruce wilkinson...that was pretty good.

OnTheBrink Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 My church is beginning a study of the OT this year. We're reading through the OT as a church. I ended up buying an audio version of the bible that goes through the whole bible in a year so I can hear it as well as read it. I got it off the Listerner's Bible website (on sale for $19.99!) and it's ready by Max McLean. I do end up hearing NT and Psalms along with the daily OT reading, but that certainly can't hurt anything. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JVA Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I'll be starting the one year chronological bible this week. A friend recommended it- I'm looking forward to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcconnellboys Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Not another trip through the Bible, but I have made the Upper Room devotional page my homepage on my computer to help me remember a make daily devotionals a more formal part of my life. And I have joined the online prayer through Operation World (thanks, Heather!) which gives me daily prayer prompts for different groups throughout the world....

Dianne-TX Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 DH and I have been using Professer Horner's reading system. I don't think it's a year, but it's been great so far and exciting to know that we are getting through the Bible in a way we might not have on our own. We are thankful for being introduced to it. Here is a good blog that wrote about the reading system. http://www.challies.com/christian-living/ten-chapters-per-day Prof. Horner is also on Facebook, as the blog links to at the end, so if you are on FB you can also look there.

beachpotato Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Have you heard of the One Year Bible Blog? I love it! http://www.oneyearbibleblog.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HollyDay Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Yes, this will be the 3rd year running for us doing a One Year Bible study. We miss days occasionally, so hopefully we will get all of it read! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuvingLife Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I actually got a book for my birthday last year. But to tell you the truth, I slacked off on it quite a bit. This year is a whole new year is a whole new story though, I am going to stick with it no matter what! I hope you all do the same!:001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalicoKat Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 on the kindle boards there's a group that does the One Year Bible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallorie Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I got a MacArthur ESV Study Bible for Christmas. :D In the intro he discusses his method for studying the text, and i'm going to try that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paintedlady Posted December 30, 2010 Author Share Posted December 30, 2010 I'll be starting the one year chronological bible this week. A friend recommended it- I'm looking forward to it. I looked at the chronological bible and thought about using that one. Why did you choose that one over a regular bible-in-a-year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I have joined the online prayer through Operation World (thanks, Heather!) which gives me daily prayer prompts for different groups throughout the world.... I think this is an awesome idea! That's why we decided to do the one year bible--it's too easy to let your bible reading slip if you don't have a good plan in place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avila Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 I am doing this! And I am kind of excited about it. I just downloaded a free guide from the Coming Home Network that breaks down the New American Bible and the Catechism so that you read and finish in a year.

JVA Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 I looked at the chronological bible and thought about using that one. Why did you choose that one over a regular bible-in-a-year? I'm helping to teach the Precept Isaiah course at our church and the amount of history in it prompted me to choose this one. It will help me keep things in order better. Besides, I LOVE history.

I like the idea of the chronological bible but since I'm doing it with my kids and dh, I thought this first time through it would be better to do the regular one.

6packofun Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 I will be going through Discovering the Bible, which gives a reading plan and thoughts/notes for each set of daily readings to help you along. http://www.amazon.com/Discovering-Bible-Daily-Reading-Companion/dp/product-description/1615212698 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Margo out of lurking Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 I'll be starting the one year chronological bible this week. A friend recommended it- I'm looking forward to it. I've done this and gotten a lot out of it. There's something in me that really appreciates the "chron" part of it! If it's the same one, I've enjoyed the commentary by F. LaGard Smith. I slacked off the first two years in Aug/Sept. Then Feb. This year, I waited until Sept., because I really wanted to get into the NT. (Yes, I wanted to stay on track with the dates!) But I liked that so much that I've stopped because I don't want it to end.:glare: I'm thinking I should be looking for a NT Bible reading plan, or Jesus in the OT, which I saw the other day...

Frontier Mom Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 We did this one year and offered a $100 bill to anyone who finished every day. My oldest ds was the only one to get the money, but boy was he proud!! I use Youversion.com. They have many different plans you can choose from.
