Welcome Bible in 90 Days\/ Blogging Through the Bible in 90 Days<\/a> participants! I am thrilled that you decided to join us in reading every word of the Bible between now and October 5.<\/p>\n

If you are up to date, you should have read to page 96 in the Bible in 90 Days Bible or to Leviticus 14:32.<\/p>\n

At the end of this post I will invite to share your progress with us. Please leave a comment letting us know where you are in the reading, whether you are caught up, racing to catch up or even feeling a bit frustrated. For more on check-in posts, please see this post.<\/a> Bloggers, you are invited to share your progress with a comment or a link to your own blog post in the linky.<\/p>\n

Now, on to a a message from Ted Cooper, who created the Bible in 90 Days program after reading the Bible in 90 Days himself and becoming a Christian as a result…<\/p>\n

How exciting is this? Amy reports that over 500 of you are joining MomsToolBox.com in reading the entire Bible this summer. Imagine how each of you will be impacted\u2026 and how then you will be able to impact your family, friends and churches.<\/p>\n

What you are doing is simple, in concept: reading God\u2019s Word\u2026 all of it… from cover to cover… like we do a novel.<\/p>\n

It is the bestselling book EVER. So it makes sense for us to read it. And, it seems very likely that the Author meant for us to experience ALL of it \u2013 not just bits and pieces of it.<\/p>\n

So, congratulations for finding this online community, a group with which to share this foundational experience.<\/p>\n

Here are just some of the FREE ways we can help you:<\/p>\n

Here are some LOW COST ways we can help:<\/p>\n

*\u00a0The Bible in 90 Days <\/em>Bible <\/em>\u2013 There are\u00a0many<\/em> good Bibles out there; you may even have several on your bookshelf. But MOST of them are NOT well suited to reading from cover to cover in 90 days. Often, the print is too small\u2026 or the translation is wonderful in small doses (but not large)\u2026 or there are great sidebars and footnotes that detract from the reading. We strongly encourage you to use the B90 Bible on your journey. If cost is the issue, please apply for a scholarship from us. We are a tiny ministry, but we want you to have a great experience journeying through God\u2019s Word.<\/p>\n

*\u00a0The Bible in 90 Days Leader\u2019s Kit <\/em>\u2013 Our curriculum and resources have helped groups as small as TWO people to more than 1000 people read the entire Bible\u00a0in community.<\/em> The Leader\u2019s Kit <\/em>includes:\u00a0The Leader\u2019s Guide<\/em>, weekly lessons on DVDs,\u00a0The Participant\u2019s Guide<\/em>,\u00a0The Essential Bible Companion<\/em>, the Bible, and additional resources to help you market the course within your church or community. The curriculum is designed so that leaders need only FACILITATE. No knowledge of the Bible is necessary (though it is certainly welcome).<\/p>\n

Finally, if there\u2019s something that can help you on this journey that we aren\u2019t yet supplying, please let us know. We want to help as many people as possible have this foundational Christian experience.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
