1. Read through one days worth of reading per week. 2. Write down one or more passages for each chapter and document your thoughts on it. 3. I recommend buying a full tablet of paper and devote one page per day of reading. You can also use OneNote or another electronic system. When we're finished, you'll have a nice outline of several major events from the bible. 4. Feel free to go outside of the reading if you have time. 5. Audio playlist is available. Or, you can use Bible.is on your phone/pc/tablet to read along with it. www.bible.is/ENGESV/Gen/1/D Reading for this week:Day 17 | 1 Kings 3, 6-12 | King Solomon introduced |
Again, if you finish early, feel free to read between the gaps from last week and this weekDay 16 | Psalms 1, 8, 19, 23, 51, 100, 103 and 139 | Psalms of King David |
Questions for the week (post below - no login required - or email me directly): - Which commandment did Solomon break that ultimately turned him from following God?

Solomon broke commandment 2- Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above or that is in the earth beneath or that is in the water under the earth. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them nor serve them for I the LORD thy god am a jealous God visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me and showing mercy unto thousands of them that love me and keep my commandments!

Well said Jamie. You're on the right track. What caused Solomon to do this?

All his many different wives believed in false gods, which led him to praising them and losing sight of the Lord!

Now you're on the right track. You can read chapter 11 for the full account. ;-)
