Let's do this together :]
Well, what better way to start off the new year than by committing to reading The Book of Mormon? I'll be honest. I am the WORST scripture reader. I don't mean that I can't pronounce half the words in the scriptures (which is entirely true but besides the point...), I mean that I almost never read. It's so bad. Forgive my lack of reading..
As I was cleaning out my church bag and preparing it with new materials for my primary class, I found my scripture study journal. I looked inside, ashamed that it had been a while since I had done any studying, and found a schedule for a reading challenge I had found online. I was really good about sticking with it for about a week, and then I never went back to it. I decided that starting January 1st, I am going to start and complete my challenge!!
The challenge that I am going to participate in is called
40 Days & 40 Nights
This challenge has a list of scriptures for you to read morning and night and has a highlighted scripture/chapter for you to focus on. As I said, I don't remember where I found the reading list, but if you are interested in joining in, you can email me at aanderson[at]gmail[dot]com and I will be happy to email you the schedule :] I have one for The Book of Mormon and one for the New Testament!
If you're looking for something a little easier...
