*Update: Congratulations to commenter #115, Alex! I have emailed you for your shipping info.

With less than 2 weeks until the start of my biggest challenge yet- reading through the Bible in 90 Days– I am thrilled to offer a giveaway of the following:

:: (1) Bible in 90 Days Bible (NIV translation)
:: (1) Bible in 90 Days Participant’s Guide

One lucky reader will receive the materials above in time to start the challenge on January 1st. There is still time to order the books as well.

Some readers mentioned that they would like to participate, but prefer a different translation. That is completely understandable! Thankfully, our leader Amy has provided a reading schedule and tips for completing the challenge with your own Bible.

Like I said, yes, you can read a different Bible. And if you choose to do that, I still would love to help you accomplish that goal. Feel free to download and print this handy bookmark reading schedule and check off the days as you read. The bookmark lists page numbers for the plan Bible and scripture start and stop points you can use with any Bible.

There is also an optional one hour twitter chat tonight, December 21st, from 9-10pm CST. Details here.

    I’ve read the bible thru once – I did it last year, starting 1/1/08. I used crosswalk.org and bookmarked their page for the daily reading and their system took me automatically to where I needed to read every morning. I started it again this year, but had some internet problems which made the computer system frustrating, so I bought The MacArthur Daily Bible which I am currently reading (although I must admit that it’s going slower this year). Reading the Bible in 90 days sounds like a huge challenge and I would love to get the Bible and Participant’s Guide.

  3. says

    I have never read the Bible cover to cover, but I have resolved to SO many times. Maybe this challenge is the push I need to actually do it!

  6. Deanna says

    I have never finished reading cover to cover. I have started several times… just don’t stick with it. Would love to try this challenge.

  7. Amy Scott says

    I’ve read through the bible several years ago and I can’t remember exactly how long it took, but I know it was at least a year. I have let my bible study fall by the wayside, so I need to get back into it and am going to take the challenge.

    Thanks for the giveaway!

  8. Wendy Cameron says

    I did get one of the One Year Bibles and did it a few years ago. That was when I only had one or two kids…now I have 4 under 6. It was really hard for me to stick with the Experiencing God study my church just did, but I did complete 8 weeks out of the 12 and still attended even when I didn’t do the material. I don’t always read my Bible, but I sure pray alot these days!

  13. says

    I read through the Bible one year in Bible College. To tell you the truth it was a lot harder than I though it would be but so rewarding!

    I wanted to ask you about you being a Lifetime Mom’s affiliate. First off, congratulations for that! Secondly, I was wondering how to go about applying. My blog is about freebies, coupons, deals, my faith, beauty advice, & time-saving tips all to help make a woman’s life more beautiful. I believe my blog give a woman the resources to be a good manager of her house. Let me know if there’s a chance I could get “accepted.”

    I love your blog, thank you for all you do!

    Thanks again!

  17. Diane says

    I have not read the bible cover to cover, but always wanted to. This bible and participant guide sounds like a great, structured way to do it!

  19. Kathy A says

    I’ve lost count of the times I started to do this but never did get all the way through the Bible. I’m going ot start this challenge with you. I’m committed to getting it done this time!

    Awesome giveaway. Thanks for the opportunity to win.

  20. Heather says

    I have been reading straight through but have only gotten about 500 pages through. I would love to join this challenge!

  21. Kristen Foster says

    My friend and I have an accountability group. We are doing the life journal right now. It is interesting because it pairs up section of scripture that tell the same events.

  22. says

    I’ve never read the Bible cover-to cover. I have read most of the Bible using other reading plans and would live to read through the whole thing in order to start the year off well.

  27. Pat says

    I have not read the bible from cover to cover, but I believe now is the time! This is a great challenge

  35. Heather S. says

    I haven’t read the bible from cover to cover yet…but I think I am at that point in my life where I could really use the spiritual uplift

  38. Randi says

    We’ve read huge chunks but haven’t ever read it cover to cover. We’re looking forward to the challenge!

  43. Leah Evanson says

    I have never read the Bible cover to cover. It’s a lame excuse, but I sometimes find my mind wandering. I am hoping I win so I can put this to good use!

  45. Gayle McLaguhlin says

    I have read the Bible through about 4 times and have enjoyed it and learned different things each time. I also subscr ibe via Google Reader. Love your blog.

  46. says

    I have never read the bible cover to cover but would love to. I try to keep a devotional going regularly so that I am always reading the Bible.

  47. says

    I thought I entered this giveaway but I can’t find my comment. So if this is a duplicate, please ignore it. 🙂

    My family and I have read through the one-year Bible at least twice, and it went well. I’d like to try the 90-day challenge on my own.

  48. Pat says

    I’ve read the Bible cover to cover three different times. I’ve never read it in 90 days, though. That’s incredible!

  51. Jodie says

    i read the entire bible out loud to my daughter as i was nursing her from birth to age three months. it probably did average out to an hour a day of seated quiet time, as i wasn’t able to read every time i nursed, but i did much of the time. i am just about through my second trip, only have revelation to go.

  52. says

    I have read it through 3 times. Once each year for the last 3 years. I had started it again this year, but got side tracked when I started blogging. I will get back into reading it after the of the year.

  54. Vanessa says

    I have never read the whole bible… however, I believe I have read most of it… but I’m excited to start this challenge- my husband thinks it’s alot to commit too but my thought is after these 90 days I’ll be disciplined to be in the Word more and a daily bible verse will not cut it and that’s what I need/want.

  57. Michelle says

    I love your website. I subscribe through email and anxiously check it every day.

    I have not read the entire bible through, but this is something my husband and I have really wanted to do together. Due to his work schedule we have not been able to commit to the class at our church so, this opportunity to read the bible through at home we are so excited about!!!

  61. Sarah B. says

    I never have read the Bible cover to cover, but would love to. this would be an awesome journey for me. Thanks for the giveaway.

  63. Kim says

    I read through the Bible in a year a few years ago. I’m glad I did it. I’ve never read the Bible in 90 days before, but have been thinking about the challenge.

  64. says

    I haven’t read the Bible cover to cover. I’ve been thinking about this challenge alot lately and I think I’m going to do it. Going to get a little bigger type Bible than what I have right now first. I’d love to be entered to win this as well!

  69. Betsy says

    Three years ago our pastor challenged the whole church to read through the bible in a year. It changed my life. Since then, I read all the way through one year and read through just the New Testament the next year. This year I read the Chronological Bible and that was a totally different experience. I love our pastor’s directive: “You cannot know the will of God or the way of God unless you know the WORD of God.” I also remind friends that, unless you have read the bible yourself, you are using someone else’s interpretation of what the word says. If by some chance I’m randomly picked, I’ll give this to someone else–just wanted to encourage all to dig in and read the greatest book ever!!

  71. Cyndi says

    I have never read the bible cover to cover. I’ve started, but never seemed to get through it….

  72. Cyndi says

    I am a follower of this blog on my google reader. I would love the chance to win the 90 day Bible.

  73. Heather H says

    Yes I have read the entire Bible, The One Year Bible! It is awesome because it puts everything in order chronologically so you can follow it more like a story book! God is great!

  75. says

    I haven’t actually read the entire bible in chronological order, but I have read the entire Bible by reading and skipping around the Bible over a period of time. I think this would be a wonderful challenge to fulfill.

  80. Diane L. says

    I signed up for a program at our church last year to read the entire Bible in one year. Unfortunately, I dropped off about 1/4 of the way through. Sad!! Maybe this program would help me to do it this time.

  86. Amanda says

    I have not read the entire bible YET! I am almost through the New Testiment and, even though I’ve been a Christian since childhood, my life has never felt more secure. It is truely our guide for living a life full of love for others, but mostly for our Saviour!

  98. Cindy says

    I’m almost through with my through-the-Bible-in-a-year plan. Just until the end of the month, and a few days beyond that. I’ve set out to do it before, but for one reason or another, always given up and just started randomly reading again. This time, Lord willing, I will actually be able to say that I’ve read the Bible cover-to-cover, no skipping. Even Leviticus, which may be the dryest thing I’ve ever read. Lots to find, even in there, though!

    I would love to try doing it in 90 days!

  101. Lauren says

    I have started to read the Bible through in a year in September, made it to Judges and I’m not sure what happened. I want to be in the Word more and I think this challenge and resource are going to be awesome! Thanks for the challenge!

  102. Psalm says

    I’ve tried, but never completed reading the Bible cover to cover. I’m excited to try as I haven’t been able to really read in a few years as reading triggers my seizures. So, I’m praying that the Lord will allow me to get through without seizures!!!

  103. Angel S. says

    I would love to win this! I am almost done reading through the Bible – only a few more days left this year. This year was the first time I have made it all the way through, reading everyday, not getting ehind and catching up. It has been wonderful. So many times my reading was exactly what I needed to hear that very day!

  105. Stacy says

    I”ve read large chunks of the Bible, but I’m sorry to say I’ve never read it cover to cover. I may make that my resolution this year.

  107. Erin @ Closing Time says

    I have never read the Bible cover to cover, though I have read all of the books at one time or another (just not straight through). I am super excited about this, and believe it will be amazing!

    I have never read The Bible from cover to cover but would like to. I attended Catholic Sunday school as a I grew up but feel I missed a lot and would love to study in a different way. Thanks.

  112. Diana says

    I hate to say this but not I have not read the Bible cover to cover. I have read sections. I am making that my goaled for 2010 to read the Bible cover to cover and this would help me. Thanks for the giveaway.

  113. says

    I have not read my Bible cover to cover but I would love to win so I can have a tool to help me accomplish this!! Thank you!

  123. Patty Coleman says

    I have never read the Bible from cover to cover. I have started and stopped many times. I would love to win this book for the Bible in 90 Days Challenge!

  127. Kelly Pitt says

    No, I have not read the entire Bible. I make it all the way through the New Testament, but then I bog down in the Old Testament! I want to though!

  131. Kimberly says

    I tried to read the entire Bible several years ago….started in October reading the Gospel (according to the one year schedule I had), then kept going with the Old Testament in Jan….petered out around April! I know, 6 months in! The 90 days would be perfect for me!

  137. Sheri says

    Although I took a “Through the Bible” class, I still did not successfully read the Bible from cover to cover.

  138. Jenn says

    I’ve never “read” the Bible cover to cover. However, I’ve listened to the entire Bible through audio books & the Daily Audio Bible podcast several times. I found this to be much easier since you can listen while you’re folding laundry or whatever else you need to do. I’ve read the whole New Testament several times, read all of Proverbs usually once a month, and read through Genesis at least once a year (one of my favorite books!). I haven’t read or listened, though, since my daughter was born nearly 5 months ago…it’s time to get back into the swing of things!

    To Carolyn #24 if you see this…I hope reading with your daughter goes well. I used to mentor teenage girls and support and encouragement and accountability from their parents is hugely important in their walk with the Lord. I’ll be praying for you two and am excited for you! I can’t wait until my daughter and I can read the Bible together (right now all she wants to do is eat it, haha!).

  140. Trisha says

    I have read the Bible cover to cover but it’s been ages. I have tried the last several years but get stopped around summer time when my schedule picks up alot. I have another friend committed to do this with me.

  144. Rachel says

    I have read thru the entire Bible but I would love to do the 90-day challenge and the weekly questions.

  145. Jen says

    Hi! I have never read the Bible cover to cover, so I’m going to give it a shot with you. Praising God for His Word that teaches us truth every day!

  156. Erika says

    I have read the bible cover to cover, but have recently stopped my daily devotionals. Participating in this challenge gives me a boost of encouragement to stat over again.

  158. Erin Medina Heins says

    I have never read the Bible from cover to cover but always want to find a way to do so…this would be an amazing opportunity to grow in the word…I HOPE I WIN!!!

  159. April says

    I became a Christian two years ago and I have been trying to read all the way thru the Bible with no luck! I would love, love, love to do this devotional & bible reading!

  162. Priscilla says

    I’ve read about 1/2 of the Bible through in a year’s time. I still desire to get it all read…it is taking me longer than my original goal.

  164. karen o. says

    i have never read the bible thru. One of those “lifetime” goals that I should do sooner than later!

  166. Ellen says

    I have already downloaded the schedule and can’t wait to start. I’m doing this with my sister!

  169. denise says

    I’ve read the Bible thru 13 times from Bible College days until this yr (35 yrs later)…..always see something new!
    Thanks for the challenge!

  172. DLee says

    Have begun to read the Bible through, but never finished…always get sidetracked with something less important!

  175. says

    I have read it cover to cover, it went great – I had to have a reading plan and something I could check off everyday as I’m a list maker.

  176. teresa says

    I have read the Bible through once years ago. It would be very good for me to read it through again as I have been sticking with my faves or the “easier” books lately and need to kick back into gear and read the WHOLE counsel of God again.

  182. Nicci O says

    I have read through the Bible, but in a year, and with some days missing or rushed. I’m excited to take the 90 day challenge!

  184. Kelly says

    I have started and stopped so many times and still never finished reading through the whole Bible. What a great give away, thank you!

  185. jennifer says

    I have read the bible cover to cover when I was a kid. Unfortunately, it did not make a lot of sense to me at the time, as it was an old world translation! Sure, I got the basics down, but this would be great as a nice refresher!

  186. Mary Lebeau says

    I’m in….I’ve tried the Bible in a Year numerous times, but never quite made it. This sounds like a great way to get into the Word and start the new year.

  192. kim says

    i have tried to read though the Bible several different times but never seem to make it. I have tried different programs but i think this is a great ideal and would be great to do with others

  193. Rae says

    wow I am so excited to do this…..I have read the bible thru a few times in my life but what a way to start the New Year.thanks

  196. eunice b says

    i have never read through the Bible although i’ve started many times…would love the extra incentive! 🙂

  200. says

    I have read the Bible through once. It went okay but I must admit there were books that I just didn’t get anything out of and did not understand.

  202. Christina says

    I have tried several times to read the Bible cover to cover. I am determined to do it this time! I am trying hard to get a friend to do the challenge with me. Also my DH is going to keep my accountable!

  203. Tina says

    I have attempted to read the bible cover to cover the last 2 years with my church using the one year bible. I have come very close but have not quite accomplished it. Here is to completing it in 2010!

  206. Ysenia Ramirez says

    I have read parts of the bible, but not cover to cover. This would be perfect for me. Thanks for the entry.

    I’ve made a few attempts and even participated in a few bible studies, but haven’t managed the entire bible yet. What a blessing this would be!

    I have never read through the Bible from beginning to end. The older I get the more fascinated I get with the Word! I am challenging myself to do this with you guys as well as my husband!

  226. Sarah says

    I am pretty sure that with various college courses I have read almost all parts of the Bible, but have never read it cover to cover. I am hoping to try next year with my husband and this would be a great help!

  227. Stephanie says

    I’ve attempted to read the bible cover to cover, but with no luck. I start off good but always allow everyday life to get in the way.

  228. cheryl says

    I went to an elementary parochial school & we did it one yr. I can honestly say that I didn’t get much out of it (which is kinda sad). It was more of a rote class without any discussion of meaning or how we saw it (7th graders)…just this is the way it was/is & you are not allowed to question the Bible.
    Since then DH & I have tried to read the New Testament but life somehow gets in the way.

  229. cheryl says

    I’m a subscriber too & I plan on sharing the idea of reading the bible in 90 days with DH.
    thanks for the chance to win

  230. Misty Anderson says

    No I have never read the Bible cover to cover but I am planning to start on it as soon as I win this giveaway!!!
