GNT reading partners
Forum category
I’ve been reading through the GNT on my own for several years now, sometimes with a few partners. This year, I’m considering doing some GNT reading projects online, if I can find interested people. I would probably host this at my blog, which is currently empty. Here is an example of how it might work:
Project: Ephesians
Schedule:
Eph. 1:1-14 — March 1
Eph. 1:15-23 — March 4
Eph. 2:1-10 — March 7
Etc.
So, the first idea is that the project has a definite length. No one is signing up for an indefinite eternity. That way if people’s situations change they can drop out or hop in at a convenient point. Second, there is a clearly defined schedule with several days between each reading. The dates represent the day that I would blog, posting the text and my own observations. The break days would allow time for good discussion and for people who read slowly or can’t read on certain days to keep up. I think I’ve set the requirements so that anyone from an intermediate Greek reader to someone quite proficient could benefit from participation, but I’m open to suggestions as to how to improve the system
So, is anyone interested? If I do get some positive feedback, I will finalize a project and reading plan….. and my blog.

If you can start in a place where the greek is fairly easy [Mark?] , I might be interested. It’s been a LONG time since I did any reading in the GNT.
"Our task today is to tell people — who no longer know what sin is...no longer see themselves as sinners, and no longer have room for these categories — that Christ died for sins of which they do not think they’re guilty." - David Wells
I’m working on this. I have received some positive feedback from other sources, and I am putting together a project and schedule proposal.
