I am starting a new reading schedule, and I will try my best to post reading responses on this blog. Anyone is free to read along with me, and we can discuss the different works on here.
This is my reading plan:
Three month rotations of a philosopher (as a broad ambiguous category), theologian, literary author, and a section of the Bible as outlined below.
April-June:
Philosopher: Ralph Waldo Emerson (philosopherish...)
Theologian: Jonathan Edwards
Literary author: Nathaniel Hawthorne
Bible: Latter Prophets (Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, the Book of the Twelve)
Feel free to join in on any of these authors. Reading in community is extremely important.
I have split the Bible into 8 different sections as follows:
1)Pentateuch: Gen, Ex, Lev, Num, Deut
2)Former Prophets: Joshua, Judges, Samuel, Kings
3)Latter Prophets: Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, The Book of the Twelve
4)Writings: Psalms, Job, Proverbs, Ruth, Song of Songs, Ecclesiastes, Lamentations, Esther, Daniel, Ezra-Nehemiah, Chronicles (I might end up splitting this and taking 6 months to cover it)
5) Synoptic Gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke-Acts
6) Pauline Epistles: Romans, 1 & 2 Cor, Gal, Eph,Phil, Col, 1 & 2 Thess, 1 & 2 Timothy, Titus, Phil
7) Hebrews - Jude: Hebrews, James, 1 & 2 Peter, Jude
8) Johannine: John, 1,2, & 3 John, Revelation
