2015? Let's do it again!

This may be a post that I... well, not so much 'regret' as consider to have been written in folly...

Last year's task got away from me (to watch through the Nicolas Cage filmography in chronological order and record my thoughts) and that last time I tried the year of Bible it was nearly scuttled as well. I completed the reading, but the posting part came up well short, unfortunately.

However, let it not be said that I am anything other than a glutton for punishment, so for 2015, we're going to do this again. It's been a couple of years, and I'm actually looking forward to seeing how/if my opinions reactions to various passages will/have changed.

One thing regarding formatting and approach, however: last time around I was trying to specifically write a reflection on the passage at hand. While I feel that this is a useful guiding principle, it raises some fairly obvious problems when it comes to those sections that are less substantive than others (I'm looking at you, Deuteronomy and various scattered genealogies!). So,  I'm going to take it a bit easier on myself this time around. I'll still be aiming to post every day (or every couple of days at the very least) but I am going to leave myself a little leeway when it comes to the actual content, freeing myself up for those tangential directions that I never was much good at resisting anyway.

So, bring on January 1 and the start of a new project!
