NIV Daily Bible Reading Update
Today in Sunday school we had our first discussion based on everyone reading the same NIV Daily Bible. Probably my favorite thing was that we could simply say what page we were referring to and everyone could easily flip to the passage in question. Overall, there were lots of questions asked and great discussion all around. This is the type of thing I have been longing for these past few years and it was easily my favorite Sunday school lesson ever. Most of the discussion ranged over topics in Genesis from the creation narrative, to Abraham, as well as Noah. Good stuff really.
As for how things are working out during the week, my wife and I read all of the content on a regular basis. Also, despite our hectic week, we were able to make time and sit down and discuss what we had read separately. We have done this in the past but had gotten away from the habit. Also, I have some ideas about reading from this specific NIV Daily Bible and highlighting in it, and then doing some comparisons with other translation and commentaries later on. Still sorting out how this will work in practice, but I will probably try a variety of study techniques. I’ve got one other Bible related thing, but I think I’ll make a dedicated post for it.
