Do you want to read through the entire Bible, but aren’t sure where to start or how to go about doing so? There is no shortage of new plans or creative approaches. One of the most recent is READ THE BIBLE IN 90 DAYS! Another brand new resource is God Sightings One Year Bible by Tyndale. There are one minute plans, a five minute one chapter a day Monday through Friday 52 week plan to read the entire New Testament and many, many other systematic plans. One thing is for sure, READ THE BIBLE IN 90 DAYS (or B.I.N.D.) is outside the norm of most other approaches. So why select this approach? To begin with, it is designed to be read in community for mutual support, accountability and reinforcement. The best ideas and principles from leading behavior modification programs including how to lose weight, quit smoking or even how to successfully run a marathon has been adapted and incorporated in developing the curriculum. There is even an option listening plan using the NIV Dramatized Audio Bible 0n 64 Audio CDs or 6 MP3 CDs where listeners will “read” through the entire Bible in 88 days with 2 grace days. They take between 38 and 62 minute listening sessions. You can go to our Web site and watch the READ THROUGH THE BIBLE IN 90 DAY video by clicking Senior Adults and then clicking the READ THE BIBLE IN 90 DAYS link. The 8 minute video makes a solid case for the READ THE BIBLE IN 90 DAY Approach, Structure, Why 90 Days ?, Why cover to cover ?, Resources and other valuable insights programmed into the curriculum that set it apart from all other existing plans. If you currently participate in a regular Bible reading or daily Bible reading plan, you might double up for 90 days and see how reading the Bible like a novel and in community expands your spiritual horizons. If you currently do not have a systematic plan to read the Bible, give serious and prayerful consideration to joining us for what promises to be an amazing adventure. Consider inviting a neighbor, friend or relative to join us as well. What better way to begin a New Year or even a New Decade?
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT THE BIBLE IN 90 DAYS…

“I had no idea it would touch so many people in so many ways.” –Jim Foster, Senior Pastor, John Wesley United Methodist Church. Houston
“Most Christians get a little Bible here and there. Most have never read it cover to cover. Many don’t think they could. I never expected 620 people to sign on and show up… I was hoping a couple hundred of our 1,200 attending members might go for it. A third of the people are not even church members.” Don Sweening, Senior Pastor, Cherry Creek Presbyterian Church, Denver Colorado.
“I love the Bible in 90 Days. As a Christian school teacher, I’ve studied and taught the Bible for over 15 years, but never connected more than one book. This new love and excitement for reading the Bible is from one who already knows the Bible well.” –Sue Foster , graduate
