Good news, for everyone, especially me.

We have made some leaps on the new BibleCounts.com website. By tomorrow we will start placing the basic design of the core site. This includes the registration, user tracking. etc.

Over the next month we will start integrating the core BibleCounts quiz/testing and scoring systems as well as the point tracking system.
The initial test design for ages 5-12 will be updated first. We have Mathew through Luke completed and will expand those quizzes as we get response from our users and testers.

My Grandfather, Joe Owen, passed this afternoon. He was my dad’s dad. Now I am down to one Grandfather, a sign I am getting older. I understand the way things work and that all things are made to work for God’s plan and glory. I was also not surprised by his passing.
