One of the most awesome resources provided to the Church through the publication of Lutheran Service Book is the table given in the Daily Lectionary, which is found on page (where is my Pew Edition?) of the Pew Edition. Every copy of Lutheran Service Book in the home contains this list of readings, which are intended to give you a trip through the Scriptures in a single year, with one Old Testament reading and one New Testament reading per day.
So many people resolve at the beginning of the year to more deliberately and purposefully begin a study of God’s Word, but how many of them succeed at this task? If you are to believe this post on the ESV Bible Blog, not many—and you stand the greatest chance of success if you manage to last through the month of March and press on through the year. What a blessing, then, that the LSB Daily Lectionary begins with Ash Wednesday, which is normally more than a full month closer to that point of resistance!
