THE PLAN


Every Monday I will post the reading for the week ahead. It will be about 10 chapters a week. You might want to read a chapter or two a day, and catch up at weekends. If there is a verse that especially spoke to you, a question that you have, or a thought that struck you, please share it with your fellow travellers by making a comment.

Some encouragement from an ancient brother

Take heart.  John Scotus Eriugena, a 9th century Irish theologian, read his bible for just the same reasons that you are reading it today:

 "O Lord Jesus, no other reward, no other blessedness, no other joy do I ask than a pure understanding, free of mistake, of your words which were inspired by the Holy Spirit.  Nowhere else are you sought more  effectively than in your words."
