>Maybe its a Baptist thing
Depends on how often they go to church. If they attend regularly for a few years, then the preacher will likely have gone over 80% of the Bible in Sunday morning sermons.
And most Baptist churches have some kind of weekly Bible study where you go more in depth.
Plus, most Baptist churches I've been to will start some kind of "read the Bible in a year" thing in January--complete with handouts for how much you need to read each day.
- protomyth 13y agonever heard of the "read the Bible in a year", good to know
- baddox 13y agoFYI, they are usually arranged fairly cleverly. The ones I remember seeing would run through weekly themes, like "scriptures about love" or "scriptures about finances." They would also often combine relevant Old and New Testament passages together for a day's reading. For example, one day's reading assignment would be one of Jesus' parables that references an Old Testament scripture plus the Old Testament scripture being references. Or, prophetic scriptures would be paired with scriptures detailing the fulfillment of those prophecies.
