New Thru 30
My buddy, Aron Kirk, and I have been talking about our personal time with God recently, and yesterday he challenged me to join him in starting a Bible reading plan that Elevation Church developed called New Thru 30. It takes you through the entire New Testament in 30 days.
I thought about it for a little bit, and I couldn’t think of a reason not to, so I officially started this morning. 12 chapters of Matthew. Such good stuff. For some reason, I’m seeing things in a completely new light than when I’d last read these verses. Life is different every time I read it, I guess. There were a couple of things I was really convicted about. Overall, it was just what I needed.
Aron and I have also talked a bit about fitness and just generally taking care of ourselves for a while, and he said that he also set the goal to work out more days than he doesn’t and asked if I wanted to join him on that too. Of course, I did. I need to get back in the groove of things and not let myself slip since finishing P90X last year. A couple of extra pounds have already managed to slip themselves in over the last couple of months. It’s great to have accountability when you’re going through something like this.
I’m looking forward to making it through the whole New Testament over the month of February and getting back in the habit of taking care of myself physically as well as spiritually. The goal of this month for me is to refocus things and make sure I’m on track to go through 2010 with my priorities in order. I am even planning an interesting weekend in a few days that I’ll fill you all in on later.
If you’re interested in joining Aron and I in going through the New Testament, you can read more about it on the New Thru 30 website.
