A group of us are embarking on a project to read the entire Bible in Ninety Days. We'll meet once a week to encourage one another and discuss what we're reading.
Here's a website that explains how it goes - and includes the schedule if you'd care to join us:

All this got me thinking again about the origins and reliability of the Bible as we know it today. I recall learning a few years ago that there is much evidence for the authenticity of the bible. Apparently, archeologists who specialize in evaluating all kinds of historical manuscripts have specific standards by which they judge these things. (Go figure! Who'd of known...?! Sometimes things make so much sense when you "discover" them for the first time.. D'OH! ;-)
And apparently, according to these standards of measurement, our modern Bible "passes" with flying colors. In fact, it's probably true to say that the book stands the tests beyond any other significant historical document.
This website summarizes the topic nicely:
