| 0:00.0 | A few years ago, I wanted a new plan for reading the Bible. |
| 0:05.0 | I knew I wanted to read every day-ish, but I didn't want to get behind and feel guilty and quit. |
| 0:12.0 | I knew I wanted to read straight through books in the Bible. |
| 0:16.0 | I didn't want to jump around, but I didn't want to get bored. |
| 0:20.0 | So that's when I started reading the Gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. |
| 0:26.0 | The first four books of the New Testament, the four books that tell us the most about Jesus' life here on Earth. |
| 0:33.0 | The stories, the friendships, the sacrifices, the meals, the miracles. |
| 0:39.0 | I knew before I wanted to know Jesus better, but I had no idea how reading about him consistently would change my life. |
| 0:47.0 | Three chapters a day, and you're through all four books in one month, in 30 days. |
| 0:53.0 | So I committed to one month, and I loved it. |
| 0:58.0 | So I did it again, and again, and again, and after I did it for a few months and realized it was changing my life, |

| 1:11.0 | And before we knew it, thousands of people were reading along with me each month, and our lives changed. |
| 1:18.0 | All in different ways, but we were all different. We are all different. |
| 1:23.0 | So in 2023, we are going to read the Gospels together in a new way, a daily podcast called Let's Read the Gospels. |
| 1:33.0 | Every month, I'm going to read three chapters a day for 30 days. |
| 1:37.0 | So yes, we'll double up a little in February since it doesn't have 30 days. |
| 1:41.0 | And yes, you'll have an extra day to catch up when the month has 31 days. |
| 1:46.0 | So if you're new to the Bible, and just trying to learn a little bit, join us for a month. |
| 1:52.0 | If you've been wanting to read more of the Bible, but don't know where to start, or don't want to do it alone, join us. |
| 1:59.0 | If you've been wanting to commit, but a year feels like a long time, how about a month? |
| 2:06.0 | And then we'll do it again, and then again, you may surprise yourself. |
