Did you post this just for me?! Either way, thank you. I appreciate it. 🙂
Thanks Rebecca, It is part of something that I started years ago–> got sidetracked–> decided to buckle down and finish it.
This looks fantastic, Susan. Some great work you have put into this. Well done. I look forward to seeing the rest of it.
Thanks Bec,
Another 4 weeks will be posted tomorrow. 🙂
This is a great idea. I have Penny Gardner’s list of Bible highlights printed out, but I hadn’t considered breaking them down into a schedule like this. Your site looks amazing, and I love the quote by Ryle. He’s one of our favorites to read in our home.
Ah Trisha, Who doesn’t like Ryle? 😉
I do remember seeing Penny Gardner’s site many years ago and come to think of it, the list may be similar- I don’t know. I do know that any reading of The Word is a good thing.
