The most frequent question I'm asked is whether or not the video or the group discussion is going to explain one idea or specific verse or another. Not likely. In one of the recent daily emails from Bible in 90 Days they said it so well:
Stay engaged by remembering that we are READING, not STUDYING. You won't remember many of the names, but you may recall new insights, answers and questions. You can write these down in the back of the Participant's Guide, but don't let this activity overcome your reading. There will be plenty of time for study and reflection LATER.
(Have you subscribed to the daily email yet? They are great daily encouragers and remind you of the chapters and verses you are to read for the day. Go to the Bible 90 Days and sign up.)
I've thought since the beginning that the idea was to simply get through the entire Bible in 90 days so later discussions were more fully/broadly informed. Sort of like how my high school band teacher taught the half-time show - get through it all and then go back and clean it up.
