The Bible in One Year

The Rector writes

‘Thank you so much for being part of this initiative to read every book of the Bible during the year 2022.

It is a big commitment to take on … there will be no ‘days off’ during the coming year but I guarantee you that it will be the  most rewarding read of your life.

The plan is that you read the chapters laid out each day (see inside for details) beginning on January 1st and ending on 31st December. If you don’t have a Bible yourself, you can just borrow one from the Church for the year. There are also plenty of online sites where you can read the passages. https://bible.oremus.org/ is a good site that I use all the time.  The version of the Bible that we read in Church is the NRSV version.

Every Wednesday at 8pm there will be a Zoom meeting for just one hour to answer any questions that you may have about the text you have read in the previous week. Obviously the Wednesday Zoom is entirely optional and something you can just dip into as you need.

The one thing that is not optional is that you really have to keep up with the daily reading of the assigned text as it would be very difficult to try to catch up on a whole week’s texts in one single sitting. You can tick off each day’s text in the little box as you go….and now the important question to ask yourself is ………are you ready to give it a go?’
