Typical Monday

Read morning Psalms in The New Coverdale Psalter . Tonight after dinner, I will read the evening Psalms. Spend 45-60 reading through The Pentateuch in my ESV Reader's Bible . I read a daily portion of Proverbs: Daily Wisdom and then I journal the passage I just read into my Proverbs Journible .  Work through Beginning Greek (book, video, and worksheets) Spend two hours reading a chapter of God Is: A Devotional Guide to the Attributes

I get lost in the story and have to set a timer or else I will keep reading.  To make the more enjoyable I read a different volume (section) each day of the week. For instance, on Monday I read Volume one - The Pentateuch, Tuesday is volume two - The Historical Books, Wednesday is Poetry, Thursday I venture into The Prophets, Friday I walk with the Apostles through the Gospel and Acts, and S
