Summer Goal: Reading John 30 Times

One of my goals for this summer is to read the gospel of John thirty times. I enjoy using MacArthur's method for reading the New Testament. But I'll be adjusting it a bit to fit my needs. I will not be reading  John 1-7 for a month, John 8-14 for a month, John 15-21 for a month. I'll be reading the gospel in its entirety each time before repeating. It generally takes me two to three days to read John, though I have read it in one sitting several times in the past.

Signing Up for Operation Deepen Faith

Host: Operation Actually Read Bible
Title: Operation Deepen Faith (sign up post for 2015)
Dates: January 2015 - December 2015

I'm signing up for
I. Wonderful Words of Life

My goal: To read the Bible 4 times through in 2015. I'd love to read it each quarter. But I typically end up checking my progress in November/December and making a list of which books I need to read, and how many times, in order to make it to that year's goal.

Early July Check-In

I've read the Bible  through twice so far this year.  The first quarter I read "extra" in the New Testament. The second quarter, I read "extra" in the Old Testament. James and John will have extra  because they've  been MacArthur-ed. Chosen to read 30 times in a row.

Late November Check-In

I *think* I've read the Bible through 4 times, but, I'm going to keep on reading, of course. 

II. How Firm A Foundation

My goal: Same as last year. To spend time with the Apostle John. To focus on John, 1 John, and Revelation. I'd love to read each of these 30 times. (Last year, I read the gospel of John 25 times, and the book of Revelation 43 times. I believe I read 1 John, 21 times.)

Early July Check-In

What have I done to meet this goal? Well, I chose to read John 30 times this summer. So far I'm around 16 or 17? I think. So I'm on my way to getting to that number 30!  I've started reading  R. Kent Hughes' John: That You May Believe Preaching the Word Commentary published by Crossway. I hope to finish that this summer or perhaps this fall. I have several other commentaries that I'd love to get to.  We'll see.

Late November Check-In

I finished the commentary by R. Kent Hughes!!! It was wonderful

I also listened to a teaching series called DOCTRINES OF GRACE IN THE GOSPEL OF JOHN it was absolutely WONDERFUL. I'LL BE REVIEWING THIS SOON.

III. Deep and Wide

My goal: To use the MacArthur System of study several times throughout the year. Candidates include: 2 Corinthians, Galatians, James, 1 and 2 Timothy, Titus and Philemon, and Jude. (I am not brave enough to tackle the gospels or Acts.)

Early July Check-In

I've read James. I'm in the process of  reading John. If you haven't tried this way of reading the Bible, you should be brave and just do it! I promise you that it is worth it!!! Yes, it takes time and effort. A commitment to read the Bible each day, but, it is so rewarding!!!

I will probably take a break after reading John, but, maybe one more book before the end of the year? Anyone want to be brave and read a book with me? Let me know! Pick a book, pick a month!!!

Late November Check-In

I've finished John. I've finished 1 and 2 Timothy!!! 

IV. Meditate or Memorize.

My goal: I'd love to memorize a verse per week. But. Since I'm completely new to memorization--at least as an adult--I'd be content with 24 or so. I'd rather really, really know 24, than be able to stumble through fifty.

Early July-Check-In

Am I memorizing the Bible? No. Not really. Have I  been meditating on the Bible verses I've selected? Yes and no. That is sometimes.  I seem to be contrary. Either I'm really on-task and read/meditate several times per week--sometimes even five or six days of the week--or else I'm horrible at it and go two or three weeks without. So I'm not as consistent as I'd like. But this has been helpful to me overall. It was a great blessing this spring to have these verses ready-to-go.

Late November Check-In

I am trying to decide what the best method is for this. To choose verses ahead of time. Or to write them down as I find them in my reading. To try to be methodical--going through books of the Bible, balancing Old Testament and New Testament--or spur of the moment and all over the place...

V. Christian Nonfiction

My goal: To read twenty-four nonfiction books.

Early July Check-In

I've read 59 Christian Nonfiction books this year.  That's twice my goal.  And the year is just half over. So my best books might be yet to come! 

Late November Check-In

I haven't totaled November yet. But January - October has me with 97 Christian Nonfiction books!

Goal #5 Listen to The Bible on Audio

One of my goals for 2015, in addition to reading the Bible, is to LISTEN to the Bible. I have found TWO audio bibles available through Bible Gateway that I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE and ADORE. The NIV-UK narration by David Suchet!!! And the KJV Dramatized Bible. I'll indicate which version/narration I listened to for each book. This is a year-long goal. For the record, my 2014 Bible records ended on December 27. My 2015 Bible records began on December 28th.

Written by Moses
1. Genesis (NIV-UK, completed December 30, 2014)
2. Exodus (NIV-UK, completed December 30, 2014)
3. Leviticus (NIV-UK, completed December 31, 2014)*
4. Numbers (NIV-UK, completed January 1, 2015)
5. Deuteronomy (NIV-UK completed January 2, 2015)

*Note: Listening to someone else read Leviticus is just as dry as reading it yourself with the exception that you can't skim through it. And if you're like me, you can READ faster than the narrator reading it aloud. How does listening to Leviticus compare to listening to Exodus or Genesis? Well, I found both Genesis and Exodus entertaining and enjoyable. There's a story to follow, and plenty of stuff happens. Leviticus *is* important…it is all about establishing worship and stressing the importance of how we can approach God, how we should approach God--with reverence and respect, always keeping in mind that God is holy, holy, holy.

Option #1, Faith Alone: A Daily Devotional by Martin Luther, and option #2, Everyday Prayers: 365 Days to a Gospel-Centered Faith by Scotty Smith.
