Falling back

Why yes, I am way behind with the blog – but almost up to date with reading! So here’s the message I sent out on facebook and at church this weekend:

Are you still reading in the last month of this Bible Challenge? You don’t have to be up to date to celebrate – it should really be the “Reading the Bible FOR 365 Days” rather than “IN 365 Days” if you ask me – the discipline is in the reading, not the finishing. (Although if you’re up to that – woot! Go you!) On Sunday, November 30th we will read ceremonially the last remaining chapter, Malachi 4 (the Luke and Psalm are repeats, and the Apocrypha ends the day before) and celebrate with certificates for year-long participation and/or completion. Are you in? If so, add your name to the comments below!

No, you don’t have to be bang up to date to celebrate. Yes, effort counts! No, not blogging doesn’t always mean I’m not reading. Yes, I do have a couple of days’ catch-up to do. See? We’re all in this together!

More meaningful blogging tomorrow, for sure – for now, keep reading, and add your name to the comments to join in the end-of-year celebration!
