Dr. Mohler recommended 3 Story Bibles for children in two posts on his blog.
Bible Story Books for Children and And For Older Children . . . Respect Their Desire to Read and to Learn.
I have heard wonderful things about each book.
Now thanks to Tonny Kummer of the Said at Southern Seminary blog and Ministry-To-Children.com you have the opportunity to win all three. Just take a look at his post: "Win 3 Great Children’s Story Bibles!" to find out how you can win.
If you do not win I would strongly encourage you to purchase these books.

2008 Challenges
I have decided to take part in Two Challenges in 2008.
The first challenge is the Said at Southern Seminary Bible Reading Challenge.
(An ongoing challenge to read the entire Bible by the end of January)
The second is the 2008 Puritan Reading Challengewhich was issued by Timmy Brister.
(A challenge which encourages you to read one Puritan Paperback a month for the year of 2008.)
In order to complete the Said at Southern Challenge my blog posts for the rest of January will be sparse.
I invite each of you to accept one or both of the challenges.
For those with less time please refer to this post regarding a one year Bible reading plan.

Day Three of the Said at Southern Bible Reading Challenge
The Carpenters' song comes to mind. We've only just begun. It is day three for me in the Said at Southern Bible Reading Challenge. While I have only just begun I am beginning to hit my stride. Again I am thankful to Mr. Kummer for proffering the challenge. I encourage anyone that has not yet begun the challenge to start today. The beauty of the challenge is not only will I have read through the Bible by the end of January, but I will have disciplined myself to set aside daily time for Bible reading. What a wonderful habit to get into.
Totals:
63 Old Testament Pages / 18 New Testament Pages
May at the end of the day I be able to say:
2 Timothy 4:7 (English Standard Version)
7(A) I have fought the good fight,(B) I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.

Bible Reading Challenge Schedule
Here is my schedule for completing the Said at Southern Seminary Bible Reading Challenge. I will keep you posted daily on my progress along with my thoughts regarding the readings. My posting is more of an exercise to help motivate myself to finish the Challenge, but maybe it will assist someone. I will be using a Bible Reading Chart furnished by Tony Kummer at Said at Southern Seminary. It is a useful chart. Without further discussion here is my chart:
New Testament: 18 Hours, 1080 minutes, ESV 279 Pages
Old Testament: 57 Hours, 3420 minutes, ESV 968 Pages
The plan calls for an individual to begin reading January 1 and finish by January 31, but I am beginning today. By beginning today, 12-17-07, that gives me 46 days to complete the Challenge. Through simple math I can determine my daily reading amount:
New Testament: 24 minutes, 6 pages
Old Testament: 75 minutes, 21 pages
Total daily reading 27 pages with an estimated elapsed time of 1 hour and 40 minutes.
I will keep you posted.
May this challenge encourage me to complete my reading of the Bible by January 31, 2008.

I will begin tomorrow morning posting daily on my progess taking the Said at Southern Seminary Bible Reading Challenge. I will post the pages I read the night before each morning and offer a devotional comment for both my Old Testament and New Testament readings. This is an awesome opportunity for each of you to take part in this Challenge. Anyone taking this challenge will benefit greatly. I am going to report into the originating site each day. I like the accontability involved. I am thankful to Tony Kummer for initiating this challenge.
May this challenge cause more Christians to read their Bibles daily.
If you are not up for such a rigorous challenge you may want to do a one year plan.
