This schedule, covering the post-Pentecost section of a typical schedule, utilizes changes in format and style which should stay consistent throughout the four-years.
First, I have moved away from daily assignments, since this could only cause discouragement for a working Catholic with a family, who certainly couldn't manage to stay faithful to the schedule every day (Hey, not even I can do that, and I invented this crazy scheme!) Instead, I have divided the calendar into weeks, starting each week on a Sunday. Following the dates for each week comes a series of "assignments", which can be read at your leisure. It is possible to skip a day, if necessary, or do three in one day if you suddenly have time on your hands. Furthermore, I will only post once a week, showing links to all the assignments and adding links to helpful exegetical texts by the Fathers of the Church as the week goes by. This should also offer a more relaxed opportunity for discussion of various themes throughout the week, instead of forcing us to leave behind a juicy passage before we really get a chance to reflect on it.
More importantly, each assignment is preceded and succeeded by a psalm, which I have specifically chosen for its pertinence to the text offered. My intent is to turn these readings into prayers, rather than just reading assignments. Thus, I recommend that, instead of just plowing into the reading when you sit down, you should pause and make the sign of the cross (at the very least), before praying the psalm that precedes the reading assignment, which is given in bold print. The psalm which follows the assignment should be similarly treated.
