I was doggedly making my way through the Old Testament, and had gotten through I Samuel, when I discovered a new Bible reading plan last week. I couldn't wait to try it, so I plunged in a few days ago. I planned to share it with you after I had put some more time into it, but I'm so excited about it, I couldn't wait, so here it is.
It is called Professor Grant Horner's Bible Reading System. You can read it here, and you can download it here. There is also a Facebook group here with more than 9,000 members! Horner is a literature professor at The Masters College near Los Angeles. He began reading his Bible daily as a new believer in 1983, and he gradually developed this system. Even if you have a plan you are happy with, you should read his plan for the testimony alone. However, I still encourage you to give it a try. Horner says to try it for thirty days, and he guarantees that you will see that you have been starving yourself for the Word of God.
Don't let the thought of reading ten chapters a day scare you! It takes me less than thirty minutes to read ten chapters, so if you are a slower reader, it shouldn't take you more than 45 minutes or so. Horner says it should take an hour at the most. If any of you care to join me, leave a comment so we can encourage each other in our journey together!
I've downloaded this plan for future reference. It looks great. Be encouraged as you get started! There are some other readings I am getting through right now, before I start another system. Thanks for sharing!
