I mentioned an old testament verse during lunch with a friend of mine. It had stuck with me from that morning's Bible study.
He casually noted in return that an uncle had just concluded a bible study with his friends. It was a detailed study of the first five old testament books.
"Cool," I said, "how long did it take them?"
Plenty of people do serial studies like that, so I was curious whether they had chosen a chapter per week, or a book per season or something. His answer surprised me.
"Twenty years," he said.
"Excuse me?"
"Twenty years."
What kind of determination and discipline must that require? And what wonderful fellowship they must have shared, amongst themselves and with God.
An anniversary worthy of note, to be sure.
What do you believe?
