On July 7 2010 I registered the @biblesummary Twitter account.
On July 7 2011 I became a father!
No let up
1 and 2 Kings have been hard work!
Elijah and Elisha have provided some fireworks, but for the most part the last few weeks have just been long chapters and evil kings.
Most people seem to think that Leviticus is the hardest book in the Old Testament but I'd take Leviticus over 2 Kings pretty much every time.
I'd be looking forward to moving on in a week or so but I'll only be moving on to 1 and 2 Chronicles. This must be the toughest stretch!

I've had another spree of Bible Summary milestones recently: in the last week I've completed my tenth book, passed 7000 words and passed 40000 characters. Today I'm a quarter of the way through the project!
When I started out I couldn't think about finishing the project - it seemed dizzyingly far away. I know I've still got three times as much left to do, but completing the project is beginning to be comprehensible.
It's still just a chapter a day, the same as when I started, but I have a strong sense now of each summary contributing to the greater whole.
I summarised all 1,189 chapters of the Bible on Twitter - one tweet per chapter, one chapter per day for over three years.
