I debated and prayed and debated and prayed about doing the 31 day challenge again this year.
And I just can’t resist and here is why….
1. January 1st is on a Sunday
2. There is no better way to start off the new year than with a goal of reading a passage of scripture each day.
3. I love the idea that the chapter I am reading on a given day is the same chapter other believers are reading during their quite time and we are gaining the “same” wisdom at the “same” time… Together.
4. Last year was great. The emails, blog comments and personal conversations about how God was using the wisdom of Proverbs in people’s lives was nothing short of amazing.
So, here we go…
Starting January 1st 2011, I would like to challenge you to read a chapter of proverbs each day for the month of January.
We will call this challenge…
Yes, you have guessed it…
and have already read it…
“The 31 Day Challenge”
and just like last year, each day in January, on this blog, we will post a devotional on the chapter we read that day. The posting will be written by either me, some friends of mine, or from one of our Elders at FBC. You will also be able to comment on the blog about what stood out to you from your reading from that day. (We will also post links to last year’s “31 day” blog postings) This way we will go through Proverbs together.
We hope you will take this opportunity in the new year to not only begin connecting with scripture, but to connect with us and others in an ongoing discussion about God’s Word and what it means to each of us.
If you want to accept the challenge just comment below and let us know that is your desire, you can also subscribe to the blog via email or RSS, just click on the link on the right hand side of this page to do so. That way we can stay connected as we walk through the book of Proverbs.
So who’s in?

Awesome! Love the opportunity to digest God’s Word with other believers. Also great to have the extra accountability…
Count me in! I have read Proverbs many times but having the challenge of reading it along with others was a great experience for me last year..Because like most people there are things and facts that we miss in the scripture . I loved reading everyone’s comments to each chapter last year and it helped me tremendously.
A day late, but you know I am in. Can’t resist….
I’m really late..but no time like the present. 🙂
