New Evidences the Gospels were Based on Eyewitness Accounts

"I've read bits of the Bible but I don't really know how they all fit together."

"I've never read the Bible much but I'm interested in finding out more of what's in it."
 

If this sounds like you then The E100 challenge might be just what you need.

A new and exciting way to read through the Bible.

The E100 Bible Reading Challenge is based around 100 carefully selected Bible readings (50 from the Old Testament and 50 from the New Testament) designed to give participants a good understanding of the overall Bible story from Genesis to Revelation. The 'E' stands for Essential and each of the Essential 100 readings ranges from a few verses to a few chapters.
