Chris Juby, a 30 year old from Durham City, U.K., intends to condense one chapter of the Bible a day into 140 characters and send it out on his Twitter account.
Juby is the worship directory at a local church in Durham City began with Genesis chapter one on Sunday and aims to work his way through all 1,189 chapters of the Bible.
It is a giant-size task of Biblical proportions and will take Juby more than three years to complete.
His first entry on Twitter read: "God created the heavens, the earth and everything that lives. He made humankind in his image, and gave them charge over the earth."
In an interview with the The Telegraph, Juby said: "It is my normal habit to read a chapter of the Bible each morning and I always read through from Genesis to Revelation."
"As I was coming to the end last time, I thought I needed a way of focussing my mind a little bit more on what I was reading. I thought a summary would be a good way of doing this. I already use Twitter, so I thought I'd share my summaries."
Juby also said that: "I am really excited about the project. The Bible underpins so much of our culture. People like Shakespeare and Dickens made casual references to what we would now regard as obscure passages of scripture. But people - even Christians - do not tend to read the whole Bible.”
"It is perhaps regarded as a bit of an oddball thing to do. I hope in doing the summary, it will inspire people to read the Bible for themselves. My summaries are no substitute for the real thing."
