Enjoying the Bible

One-to-one work with other believers is extremely important, but I've often felt daunted at the prospect of doing all the preparation. Also, my experience is that they can often become a bit artificial, as one person asks the questions and the other answers.

But here's a pdf with a great idea by Ron Frost for reading the whole Bible through in 3-4 months with others!

The rules are simple. We selected a date for completing the project (in this case, four months from our commencement). We meet Tuesday morning for an hour. We chat for about 15 minutes and then begin to read verses that weíve underlined in our reading for the week. Each of us has 15 minutes to review as much as he can ñ thereís never enough time for all the verses. Then we share requests and pray. It may not sound dramatic, but it is the highlight of my week.

There's no need to keep pace with others - in fact, if one goes at a different rate it means together you go through the Bible twice! It also means you can meet other people without having to prepare separate studies for each one. What a great way to simply enjoy God's Word together.
