I have been reading it. The idea of making a project out of Biblical obedience and writing about it on a blog came from two places. There's a book called, "The Year of Living Biblically," by A.J. Jacobs. Jacobs tries to live the Bible literally for one-year. Jacobs is an agnostic. He's doing it as a goof, and the book is a comedy. But, I thought it was a very interesting idea, and even the agnostic and cynical Jacobs was moved and changed by the experience. The idea of blogging the project came primarily from a movie, "Julie & Julia," which is about the chef Julia Child and a woman named Julie Powell who decided to cook through Child's cookbook in one year while blogging about it.Nathan W.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16428455412285952660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5752966919895369470.post-82303816619285849552010-01-31T16:40:58.040-06:002010-01-31T16:40:58.040-06:00This looks like a very interesting and worthwhile ...This looks like a very interesting and worthwhile project. I am adding you to my google reader and will follow your updates.<br /><br />Just curious about something. As I was reading through the list of commands, I was immediately reminded of a John Piper book I have called, What Jesus Demands From the World (is it possible to underline text in this comment section?). Then I noticed Desiring God as one of your favorite links. Any connection of this blog and that book?<br /><br />By the way - John Piper is one of our very favorite pastor/author.<br /><br />Thanks -- Jodi HubertJodihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04660414401032158829noreply@blogger.com
