Good morning and happy Easter Monday to you, sweet friends!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today we are launching into a read of the New Testament, every bit of it in just 40 days, and I hope you’ll join me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As is typical of all the reading groups here on MomsToolbox, I’ve broken down the reading into digestible pieces and formulated a reading plan for us to follow together. I’ll be reading alongside you, sharing observations here and there along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This week we start right at the beginning of Matthew and will continue bit by bit through the end of Revelation by Day 40.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So many people, Christians and non-Christians alike, WANT to read the whole Bible. And so few, comparatively, actually DO it. But YOU can. I’ve already broken it down into easy to follow reading plans. I and the whole MomsToolbox posse will be right here with you, reading, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So… Why not start by reading the New Testament first? In just 40 Days, at about 20 minutes a day, you’ll have the whole thing read and will be able to think through for yourself what YOU hear and what YOU think about it.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you invite a friend or 4 to join you, it will be even easier as you can check in with each other and even chat about things that come up in the reading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s simple. Grab any copy of the New Testament, digital or paper, download the schedule here in MomsToolbox each Monday, read and check off as you go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’re up for an extra step, I typically journal as I read, watching, reading and listening to the Holy Spirit as to what is being shared for me specifically<\/em> each day. I decipher that by using the SOAP method<\/a> and record my thoughts in my day planner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today Matthew 7:24-25 grabbed me. I can sum up what I heard for me in this: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don't just listen to what to do, DO THE WORK! (Ouch-- and a great reminder!! No more planning and messing around. DO IT!)<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Of course I’d LOVE for you to join me in reading and SOAP’ing… but, really, just the reading is a fantastic place to start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ready to jump in?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here is the New Testament in 40 Days reading schedule for week 1:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will you join me this time?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’d love for you to do so. And I’d love for you to let me know you are joining us by leaving a note in the comments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hope to see you next week!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Love,<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
