Catching up...

This post has been a few weeks in the making - I've been much busier than a long-tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs... I won't bore you with those details (after all, it's the people who read this who already know the details because they were the details.) This post is about my book reading...

Three weeks ago, I finally finished this book. WHEW! I think one day (when I have very little to do - as if that'll happen!!!) I'll go back and read the book and make notes such as: Where, When, Background, Who vs. Who, Pivotal Action, etc. It would probably make the book more interesting and I'd probably get more out of it.

Then I picked up and started Thr3e by Ted Dekker. I read it in two nights. It was a pretty good read - suspenseful and well paced. I might not agree with the background theology that Dekker's characters believe, but it was nice to read a book without foul language, and without having to skim over "racy" sections...

But now, three weeks later, I've again fallen behind on my Bible Reading for the Year. Today is as good a day as any to get back rolling... I should mention that I think I really started to fall behind when I ordered and started reading J. Vernon McGee's Thru the Bible series. I was hoping to use it to expand on my daily reading: reading my daily portion and then read the "Thru The Bible" commentary for that portion. The problem is that I started reading it (the day after I finished "Thr3e") and reading through Genesis chapter 1 took thirty-two pages. Ouch!
