N.T. Wright's Kingdom New Testament: Reading through the Gospels during Lent

N.T. Wright's latest offering is The Kingdom New Testament, a contemporary translation that is certain to challenge and edify readers. It is not too early to start thinking about what disciplines you will be following to enhance your spiritual life during the Lenten season. Getting re-acquainted with the Scriptures through a fresh translation is a discipline worth considering. Click here for a reading plan which will cover the four Gospels from Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday. As the year progresses, I will post additional reading plans to cover the remainder of the New Testament.

I would suggest this reading plan be used not merely as a daily devotional (we have the Daily Office for that), but as an opportunity to do some serious, in-depth study of the Scriptures. Read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest them. You might even want to start a small group to meet regularly and discuss what God is saying to you through his Word.
