Despite the fact that I am not a spring B90X graduate proudly displaying an "I Did It!" button on my blog or sporting the T-shirt, I do believe the experience was valuable. I did walk away with a clearer picture of the Old Testament as a whole. Some of the information I read helped me to better participate in Sunday School and Wednesday Night Bible Study discussions. I enjoyed my time reading some of the more difficult sections of text to get through... I made it through 2 Chronicles.
Now that I'm trying this program again, I'm already analyzing how this time will be different. I've come up with a plan of action to set myself up for success and better ensure that I will complete the program this time around.
- Community - I will be placed in a group of fellow readers with a mentor. The last session I did not utilize this group. I checked in when I was successful, and I was on track. However, as I got behind rather than reaching out for encouragement and tips from others, I simply reported, "I'm behind!" or "Still behind!" This time I'm going to lean on others and utilize community.
- Devotions - Amy @ MomsToolbox provides some additional devotional thoughts to go along with our reading plans. I will take time to read and digest these posts.
- Twitter - Each week B90X participants had the opportunity to have a Twitter party and chat about the reading. Now that I finally established a Twitter account, I can join in. By the way... Are you following me yet? @Wellspring_Life
- Blog - I'm actually going to try to blog weekly about my B90X experience: What God is teaching me? What He reveals in His Word? Especially meaningful Scriptures, etc.
- Join me???
Yes, read #5. I'd love for you to join me in this 90 Day Challenge to read the entire Bible. On estimate it is about 12 pages a day... roughly an hour of reading. Just think... we can encourage each other along the journey. Come on - you know you want too! Sign up HERE!

Yeah for trying again. I started off fast in Jan. but fell behind. Now I've made it to Romans and am just continuing at a slower pace.
Welcome to the crew!
Hi! Following from the crew:) I keep hearing about this ~ maybe I will do it...I am reading through the bible myself, and am in Kings for old testament and Acts in New testament. Not sure if I can really go any faster, lol. Best wishes to you! I'll stop in and see how you're doing and maybe I'll end up doing it, too!
just stopping by from the TOS Crew to say hi and follow you!
blessings,
Marcy

I'm doing a chronological year Bible and am behind in that. Can't imagine trying to read the whole Bible in 90 days. I hope you are successful

You can do it!! I managed to finish in the spring and am very glad I did because there's no way I could do it again right now, being 8 weeks pregnant :) I'm mentoring this time around, can't wait to start next week!
