Ret, welcome to the ship!

I think your approach is a good one. When you read large chunks of the Bible at one time, you get a feel for it.

At my chuch, every year during Holy Week we read an entire gospel; each chapter is read by a different person. I have a much deeper understanding of the gospels I have heard read that way.

Reading a gospel with my Youth Group -
  • Split into 3 teams
  • Teams take chapters in rotation
  • Teams look at their chapter - and make up an instant drama / mime
  • Best done after morning service - be surprised how many people wander back into church to watch and listen.
  • Don't rush to get through the full gospel - set a time limit.
  • Retire for Youth Group lunch where the activity just mind come under discussion - or maybe not.

Welcome aboard, Ret.
Glad to see you chose kerygmania for your first post. As you have read most of the Old Testament, you'll be able to speak from a position of greater knowledge than most of us [Wink]
