			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>WEEK 1 Memory Verse<br />
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1:1</h2>
<h2>WEEK 2 Memory Verse<br />
But My servant Caleb, because he has had a different spirit and has followed Me fully, I will bring into the land which he entered, and his descendants shall take possession of it. Numbers 14:24</h2>
<h2>WEEK 3 Memory Verse<br />
As for God, His way is blameless; The word of the Lord is tested; He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him. Numbers 14:24</h2>
<p>Have you ever had the life long goal of reading the Bible in 90 days? It&#8217;s time to make that goal a reality as First Southern commits to dive in to the Bible from Genesis to Revelation in just 3 months time. From now, until Easter Sunday, simply commit to read the daily passages, study their impact, and share your insights with others. During the months of January, February, and March, check this page for the details on where to start, what to read, and when to stop. Available in multiple formats, there is a <em>way </em>for nearly everyone to participate. Below you&#8217;ll find the necessary resources to take the B90X challenge.</p>
<h2><a href="http://www.firstsouthern.tv/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/2010_apple_ipad.png" class="top_up" toptions="group = 220" title="2010_apple_ipad"><img class="alignleft  wp-image-231" title="2010_apple_ipad" src="http://www.firstsouthern.tv/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/2010_apple_ipad.png" alt="" width="147" height="147" /></a>Read Via Mobile Devices</h2>
<p>Whether you have an iPad, iPhone, iPod, Android, or virtually any other wireless device, take the 90 day reading plan with you on the go. We recommend using two very special applications for doing so. One is the full-featured, and very easy to use YouVersion Bible in 90 Days reading plan. Various versions, language choices, sharing options, audio versions and daily reminders; you&#8217;ll have no excuse to not use this incredible tool. If you&#8217;re already using this app on your device, simply navigate to the &#8220;Reading Plans&#8221; portion. If not, download the app in various marketplaces or at YouVersion.com. Bible.is might be another option for merely reading via mobile devices. No built-in 90 day plan, but the simply navigation might work for most.</p>
