Okay, here is a challenge open to everyone. I am calling it 4x4x4.
The 4 Gospels
Read 4 Times
In 4 Weeks
It sounds simple, maybe even trivial, but if we are really going to be like Jesus, we have to know him. This challenge won’t bring us to a complete knowledge of Jesus, but completing this challenge will get us closer to really knowing him for sure.
The thought would be to get in the Gospels everyday. If you have to read 12 to 13 chapters a day to complete the challenge. It will be easy to think you can just catch up if you miss a day or two, and even easier to give up when you have 60 or 70 chapters to catch up on.
Let’s go for it. Let’s get to know Jesus even better. Or maybe for some of you, simply get to know him.

I am defintly in!! Starting on June 1st is my first day at camp so itshould be perfect timing for me to go through the gospels the entire week at camp. I hope that God blesses us with knowing Jesus better!
Glad to have you on board Torres.
We are sitting about 15 people who have already committed to this today!
Count me in. Is this like the P90X of Bible study?
Just wanted to document my commitment! I’m IN!!!
Dude this is intense and I like it…I am in as well!
count me in, bro. at first glance i thought you were crazy. actually, i just didn’t want to commit to something i couldn’t do. but it’s right where i am right now. i’m gonna try reading francis chan style – like someone who does not know Jesus. then look at my life and see if i’m living this out.
