40-Day Reading Challenge
Prior to being baptized on 10 March 1998, I told the missionaries that were teaching me at that time that I would not be baptized until after I had read the Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants, and the Pearl of Great Price in their entirety. I was blessed in that the Lord inspired me to develop a 40-Day Reading Schedule and so for forty days prior to my baptism, I read the Book of Mormon in its entirety followed by the Doctrine and Pearl of Great Price each in their entirety.
Please come and join me starting on 1 July 2009 for forty days of reading the Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants, and the Pearl of Great Price. You can view the 40-Day Reading Schedule that I developed by going here. I will be posting about some of the things that I learn as I read and hope that some of you will also.

I also invite people to respond to the forum here on this site where I post a scripture from the Book of Mormon and quotes that go along with it.
I'm in Keith.

Looking at my post, I see that I short changed the titles in that I only put Doctrine. That should of course be the Doctrine and Covenants. Glad to see there are some who are up to the challenge. It will be interesting to read some of the feedback as the reading takes place.

As you already know, Keith, I'm in, and will happily send around copies of the spreadsheet I did if anyone wants it. (I found the schedule easier to read in that format, and did make a couple of minor tweaks to fit my personal tastes.)

I'm in and I'm going to challenge my RS sisters to this as well. I teach the 4th Sunday and I've told them that because I'm teaching, they get to share in my life (they know I have no real life, I live online through my forums).

Keith perhaps when the time comes I can make up forums for each day of reading..Day 1 day 2 etc. That way we don't have one LONG thread for the entire reading process. Would make it easier to refer back to each day of reading. What do you think?
