bible-in-90-days

*Update: Congratulations to commenter #115, Alex! I have emailed you for your shipping info.

With less than 2 weeks until the start of my biggest challenge yet- reading through the Bible in 90 Days- I am thrilled to offer a giveaway of the following:

:: (1) Bible in 90 Days Bible (NIV translation)
:: (1) Bible in 90 Days Participant’s Guide

One lucky reader will receive the materials above in time to start the challenge on January 1st. There is still time to order the books as well.

Some readers mentioned that they would like to participate, but prefer a different translation. That is completely understandable! Thankfully, our leader Amy has provided a reading schedule and tips for completing the challenge with your own Bible.

Download the reading schedule

Like I said, yes, you can read a different Bible. And if you choose to do that, I still would love to help you accomplish that goal. Feel free to download and print this handy bookmark reading schedule and check off the days as you read. The bookmark lists page numbers for the plan Bible and scripture start and stop points you can use with any Bible.

There is also an optional one hour twitter chat tonight, December 21st, from 9-10pm CST. Details here.

For a chance to win:

1. Leave a comment below: Have you ever read the Bible cover to cover? How did it go?

If you are reading via email or in a reader, please click through to the post to enter.

For Bonus Entries (leave a separate comment for each):

2. If you are a subscriber or follower (thank you!), leave a comment. You may subscribe for free updates via RSS or email and leave a comment telling me you have done so.

3. For a third entry, share this giveaway on Facebook or Twitter.

This contest will close on Wednesday, December 23rd at 11pm CST. The winner will be selected by random.org and contacted via email. Contest open to US residents only.

Good luck, and thank you for entering!

Disclosure: I received the materials above to participate in the challenge.

6 Cindy December 22, 2009 at 12:21 am: I’m almost through with my through-the-Bible-in-a-year plan. Just until the end of the month, and a few days beyond that. I’ve set out to do it before, but for one reason or another, always given up and just started randomly reading again. This time, Lord willing, I will actually be able to say that I’ve read the Bible cover-to-cover, no skipping. Even Leviticus, which may be the dryest thing I’ve ever read. Lots to find, even in there, though!

I would love to try doing it in 90 days!

7 Psalm December 22, 2009 at 7:26 am: I’ve tried, but never completed reading the Bible cover to cover. I’m excited to try as I haven’t been able to really read in a few years as reading triggers my seizures. So, I’m praying that the Lord will allow me to get through without seizures!!!
8 Angel S. December 22, 2009 at 7:50 am: I would love to win this! I am almost done reading through the Bible – only a few more days left this year. This year was the first time I have made it all the way through, reading everyday, not getting ehind and catching up. It has been wonderful. So many times my reading was exactly what I needed to hear that very day!

37 Sheri December 22, 2009 at 3:10 pm: Although I took a “Through the Bible” class, I still did not successfully read the Bible from cover to cover.
38 Jenn December 22, 2009 at 3:11 pm: I’ve never “read” the Bible cover to cover. However, I’ve listened to the entire Bible through audio books & the Daily Audio Bible podcast several times. I found this to be much easier since you can listen while you’re folding laundry or whatever else you need to do. I’ve read the whole New Testament several times, read all of Proverbs usually once a month, and read through Genesis at least once a year (one of my favorite books!). I haven’t read or listened, though, since my daughter was born nearly 5 months ago…it’s time to get back into the swing of things!

To Carolyn #24 if you see this…I hope reading with your daughter goes well. I used to mentor teenage girls and support and encouragement and accountability from their parents is hugely important in their walk with the Lord. I’ll be praying for you two and am excited for you! I can’t wait until my daughter and I can read the Bible together (right now all she wants to do is eat it, haha!).

40 Trisha December 22, 2009 at 3:15 pm: I have read the Bible cover to cover but it’s been ages. I have tried the last several years but get stopped around summer time when my schedule picks up alot. I have another friend committed to do this with me.
