So, I heard about a CRAZY idea while watching #thenines last week.

Someone has the audacity to think they can read through the entire Bible in 90 days! 90!

I have trouble reading through it in a year. (I even tried again this year and didn’t make it past January.)

But why is that?

Why is it that I can read 20 books a year, averaging 200 pages each — or 4000 pages total, but I have trouble reading the book that 95% of those other books are all about?

The Bible sitting on our office desk is only 1720 pages. IF someone were to read it in 90 days, it would only be 19 pages a day. That can be done over lunch!

options

So, I did a quick search and found a couple different options for the plan but they seem to all follow the same reading plan.

Zondervan has a slick package which offers some cool videos and special Bible to go along with it.

Biblegateway.com offers one as well that has all the reading available online — but seems to be built around a repeating schedule — and doesn’t seem to be something you can just jump into whenever you want.

Or there’s B90X plan that @stevenfurtick’s] and evolution church are doing. They’ve also got folks using the #B90X hashtag on Twitter for accountability purposes.

the plan

So — here’s the plan. I’m going to follow @stevenfurtick’s B90X plan (because it’s free and there’s already a community on Twitter doing it) and start my reading through the Bible on Sept 15 — tomorrow.

I’m also going to try and blog about the experience along the way and I’ll be tweeting about it (along with others who have already begun) using the hashtag #B90X.

So, who’s in? Who wants to join me?
