25 chapters in... halfway through Genesis... three-and-a-half weeks into the three-and-a-half years!

A few notes and reflections...

I'm really enjoying writing the summaries each morning (good job, hey!) November 2013 seems a long way away, but each day I’m very motivated by what I'm going to write tomorrow.

It’s been great interacting with all kinds of people via Twitter and the website. It's really encouraging to hear what people make of the project. Do feel free to add your comments to the posts and chapter summaries!

UCB are broadcasting recordings of a week's worth of summaries five times a day every day. I don't think they play at set times but the recordings are great so it's worth listening out for them.

And I've just noticed that Soul Survivor are starting a 'Bible in One Year' programme today. It's very exciting to see such a major initiative engaging with the Bible. (Although I have to admit I'm a little jealous that they'll be finished so soon!)

When I had the idea for Bible Summary I looked around and was amazed that no one seemed to have thought of it before! I discovered a few days ago that someone had thought of it before.

Jana Riess summarises a chapter a day in a much sassier style on her Twitter account as the Twible. She's just finishing 1 Kings.

I got in touch with Jana to express my slight embarrassment. She was very gracious and has even posted an article recommending Bible Summary (and a couple of other interesting projects) at her Beliefnet.com blog 'Flunking Sainthood'.

Many thanks to Jana, and I warmly recommend a visit to Twible!

P.S. On the subject of related projects... I've been wanting to point your attention to @summatheologiae, who is summarising Thomas Aquinas' 'Summa Theologica' on Twitter, proposition by proposition - a truly extreme undertaking!
