Over the weekend, actress Patricia Heaton took to Twitter to celebrate a milestone accomplishment that is a perennial goal for Christians of all tribes and traditions: she read through the entire Bible in one year.
“A year ago today, I decided that I would finally, for the first time in my life, read the Bible all the way through,” Heaton said in a video. “And I got this plan from The Gospel Coalition, and I finished it today!”
“I can’t believe it,” she continued with a chuckle, going on to show viewers the pages she used to check off the chapters she had read, which were tattered from use and stained with rings from a coffee mug. “I just went through and kept checking off and checking off every day.”
