Fellow travelers:

Below are the chapters to read this week if you’re following along in my Bible in a year schedule, divided into morning and evening readings.  Follow along any way you want: you can just do the evening reading, flip the morning and evening, or read it all.  Whatever works for you and your schedule!  It doesn’t have to be Bible in a Year for everyone.

This week, we have 2 chapters of 2 Chronicles on Monday, to make up for only reading Psalm 119 this morning.  We also begin the “Songs of Ascent.”  This refers to Psalms 120-134, which were sung or recited by Jews while journeying to the Temple for annual festivals.  In a modern context, I see these Psalms as a call to prepare for worship, to rejoice in the Sabbath, and to answer a call to serve God’s church on earth.
