Reading the Acts of the Apostles in 30 Days


I've been really craving the Word lately, but all of the reading plans I found were something like "read the Bible in 30 seconds!" and I feel like all I have is time right now, so I wanted something a little lower-pressure. So I made my own to share with you. I hope you'll join me!
