Fatithful Friday Faves

I've been a little discouraged by my seeming inability to 1) post regularly and 2) keep up my intention of having a Bible Study day every week.

So I decided to start something new....I'm not sure when the inspiration for this actually hit; it's been growing for a week or so now.

Here's the plan: over the next 66-ish weeks, I'm gonna review through my Bible and list one favorite verse from each book. I'll start with Genesis next week.

Here's where the marking system comes in handy; I'm not planning to re-read/re-study each book, just skim through it reviewing the underlines and the notes I've written and look for one verse that pops out as significant. It's not necessarily going to be the Most Profoundly Meaningful verse in that book; just one that speaks to me in the week I'm looking.

Then I'll talk about it on Fridays...with the probable usual gaps of trips, holidays, and quarterly Internet breaks.

I'm excited! Some books will be hard to pick ONE out of so many; some of those iddle biddy books may be hard to find something significant. But it'll push me to post again, and that's what I need.

So...even if I can't get my act together enough to post much, I'll at least see you on Fridays! And if anyone wants to join me...well...that'd be cool too!

P.S. Don't miss the giveaway I mentioned in my previous post! So far, four ladies have put their names in the hat for the drawing. If you're interested in learning about what one man with faith has done to save orphans in Moldova, be sure and let me know and I'll put your name in, too! :-D

  2. Books like Psalms, Isaiah, Jeremiah or John will be REALLY hard to pick just one, but I'm looking forward to seeing which one you choose.

  3. This is a really wonderful idea. I'll have to kind of join in and pick my own. It'll be fun to 'compare'
