About to start a straight read-through of the Gospels. No commentary, no preaching, no preconceived notions, just straight Bible. Going to try to read it through the eyes of a child.

Sounds good! You may be shocked at what you discover!  ;)

This week i'm trying to give 100% effort (or close to it) and have a positive attitude in everything I do (church, music, work, husband, father, etc.)...I felt convicted about not having a positive attitude about church, work and related issues.   My cynicism (sp?) has been running rampant  :-\

I started at 8 am sunday at church...I must say that it has helped out tremendously in praise and worship!  I even got kudos from my supervisor on a project I was working on  :)  TGBTG!

At my old church (i moved out of state.... lol) but we had to read our bibles every year from Jan-Apr from Begining to end... And its actually pretty easy.. you take 120 days divide that into how many pages in your bible and its aprox. 15pages a day. if you can stick to this you will be done!

If you just read it like a story (you read everyother book you want to read :/ justsaying..) but no studying no commentary no extra stuff, just read it no skipping around (you dont skip around the harry potter books lol - lbvs) and just read it straight through. You find alot about yourself and God will open your eyes to things. I also Like to become the characters im reading it gives me a better understanding of even my personal relationship with God. its awesome!

I think I may pull my first college "all-nighter" Am I excited? Heck naw.

I have to do a critique on a 16 page short story. I have all the points that I want to write about but I can't get this darn intro. Once I get the intro, I'm good.

I had to do a critique a few weeks ago for an interdisciplinary writing class. OMGn I'm so hating this class and I'll be so glad when it's over in 3 weeks! Ugh!

Anyway, best wishes to ya! :)

Ummm 15 Bible pages a day can be a whole lot of reading... GEESH!!!!! It's not a lot for one night or one afternoon, but to try to read 15 pages every day... nah, I couldn't do that. BUT, I do commend your church for pushing the importance of reading and re-reading the Word daily and thoroughly. You don't see a lot of that anymore these days, so kudos to them.

That is pretty cool. How are you doing it? Do you just smile your way through things or what?

LOL - but to be honest it only takes about 30 min (well if ur a normal speed reader... but if you read slow it may take an hour lolll!!) (i ment that as a joke!)

but yea it takes a few moments out of my day. I already get up and pray or have a time in the evenings I dedicate to God so I just add a few more on to that and read my bible.

Dont get me wrong sometimes i dont always read 15 I may read a few more if its good... and some days im not going to lie i only get 2 pages in. but I try to make up for it in some way so I wont fall behind to much :)

I just focus on that task at hand, do my best, don't to let anything sway my focus, and do it with a smile on my face.  And if I screw up...I charge it to the game and go at it again with the same tenacity.

Oh I forgot... One thing about this to... it was actually a requirement for Minnisters, Missionaries, and anyone who held any kind of position in church... all choir members, musicians, ushers, teachers, even kitchen staff. If you didnt finish your bible then you got sat down until you did.

of coarse its on the honor system but why LIE and say you did finish when you didnt..... One year (about 10 years ago) The pastor asked everyone to stand. and he said who all finished your bible sit down.... needless to say those people standing finished in like the next 2 weeks

but also one year I didnt finish on time and I was honest about it. But better believe when I finished I was like PASTOR IM DONE!!!!! LOL

but its also a since of accomplishment for me to know that I started something and completed it!!!

What's the story, and how long is the intro?

I'm so excited about the scent of turkey necks filling my home.

I should be doing homework but I really have no focus. Did I mention how happy I am that these terms are only 8 weeks long? Thank God!

I shouldn't be on here.....lol.

@SJ

I left out some info. The story we read as a class is "Sweat" by Zora Neale Hurston. The teacher gave us a 16 page critique that a man named Myles Raymond Hurd did of Sweat. We have to do a critical response to Hurd's critique.

He gave us a sample from another story so I'm just going over that. I just need to calm down and concentrate. In the intro, he wants us to identify the main points, explain them, summarize the topic focus and the thesis.

Hope it makes sense.

Doggone it, that's what I said! He has the directions separated by introduction, body paragraphs and conclusion. That is what he has under introduction. ::)

All-nighters can be fun with the right music, the right snacks, and a healthy dose of entertainment (meaning you have to choose the right night. I prefer Tuesday or Thursday.)

Actually, that IS the introductory paragraph. The introduction gives a rough outline of the paper you are about to write. it is not strange to summarize what you want to get across in the introduction. The body of the paper is used to fully thresh out what you want to say in more detail.

Writing papers is actually very simple if you follow a well thought out formula.

For the record, writing papers was/is the least of my worries as a student.
