The discussion notes ( PDF / TEXT ) for breakfast on Saturday, December 24, 2011 are now online — ”Trumpets, Scrolls, Horses, etc”. Discussion verses: Zephaniah 2:7 and Revelation 11:3

This is week 51 of the ONE YEAR BIBLE CHALLENGE.

SUGGESTIONS:

If you didn’t start the ONE YEAR BIBLE CHALLENGE in 2011, then… -> Read the Whole Bible in 2012
If you started, but didn’t finish the ONE YEAR BIBLE CHALLENGE in 2011, then… -> Read the Whole Bible in 2012
If you completed the ONE YEAR BIBLE CHALLENGE in 2011, by reading the entire Bible in one year, then…-> Congratulations! You should Read the Whole Bible (again) in 2012. I’ll be starting my third year in a row, and it hasn’t been boring yet. But try a different reading plan or Bible translation if you want more variety.
