So once again, I'm learning new things about the good book. I started the New Testament this afternoon, but only got a few chapters into the first book Matthew. I'm very surprised that on the first page we learn of Jesus' birth. I figured there be some warm up, some background, something to set the scene. Not so much. Unlike 90% of the Old Testament, I already knew everything I read today. I'm sure that will change eventually.
I've got 30 more days to finish up this reading assignment. I'm hopeful I can stay on track from here on out. It would be great to finish it before Christmas.
