When I was in elementary school, we had to do book reports on books we checked out of the library.
Yes, I’m old enough to remember when people read actual books.
I remember one of my friends telling me that whenever he got a new book, he would read the last page first. That always struck me as odd, though I’ve since learned it’s more common than people admit.
Kind of like reading the Bible.
People who actually do it usually don’t make a big deal about it.
And people who make a big deal about it often don’t do much reading.
I thought about that this week because this Sunday marks the final readings of the year. We’ll finish Revelation. The last page.
Amen.
So if you haven’t signed up yet but have been thinking about it, this is actually a good moment to start. Read the ending, then start fresh in January.
And if you’re not a “read the last page first” person, I’d still suggest not waiting until January to sign up. Life has a habit of getting in the way.
Things you fully intend to do later have a way of slipping by.
It doesn’t cost anything to join.
So if you’re planning to start next year anyway, you might as well sign up now and remove the friction.
