Comments on: Bible in 90 Days: Do you need an official B90 Bible? http://www.momstoolbox.com/blog/2009/12/30/bible-in-90-days-do-you-need-an-official-b90-bible/ Tools for Real Life Sat, 11 Feb 2012 13:54:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: yralih http://www.momstoolbox.com/blog/2009/12/30/bible-in-90-days-do-you-need-an-official-b90-bible/comment-page-1/#comment-6676 yralih Thu, 08 Jul 2010 07:37:54 +0000 http://www.momstoolbox.com/blog/?p=2559#comment-6676 Well, I'm going to have to just give it a go without the "official" edition, and not *solely* because I'm ornery--hey! I'm going to use the closest online version I can get to the NIV, and I don't really like having that dictated to me, either, but I'm sucking it up. If they had the official 90-day version in electronic or spiral-bound format, I might cave and use that, but I foresee this requiring me to cram in reading at any opportune moment and my hemiplegia precludes me from reading a book without special equipment to hold it open easily, so I'll pick from the NIV Reader's Edition, Today's NIV, or the NIV-UK, which are the ones BibleGateway.com has available and just use the reading schedule. My netbook is going to become my best friend. If that's not good enough, it'll be because I'm not disciplining myself properly, not because I'm not using a specific edition of a specific version printed in a specific font size with exactly 12 pages per day's worth of reading. ~ Susan I suspect my support system will have more to do with success than any paraphernalia that I do or don't use. Just looked up the reading level of those versions above and found the NIRV is written on a 3rd grade level. I don't think I could stomach that for 90 days.

It is very interesting and I have nonbelievers the say this is a crazy idea. But o' well I am looking forward to my readings every day.

I ordered the bible from another source before I saw this (but given the others whose need is much greater, I don't mind at all). But it does solidify my faith that this is something I am being led to do. Looking forward to the journey! I’m not sure I can pull this off but I am going to try.
