Intro
Goal to read more during the quarantine 

What is it
-founded by nick hall 
-goal is to see more people reading the bible this year than ever before 

How to be involved 
-commit 
-post #yearofthebible

The Impacts being made 
-fox article 
-checked social media myself 
-Instagram pictures: angle/color 

Looking at only the hashtag 
-memes 

> but seriously, remember our current circumstances < 

-pandemic 
-Christianity Today article  
-timing = effective

What this shows us

How: Vrooman’s charts 

Social movement theory: ideographic analysis 
Truth, freedom, saved, Christian 

Positives and Negatives: 
(pretty much all that prior is positive and helping it to be effective) 

Negative- 
-toolbox theory: compared to the comedic
frame meaning “to educate a fool” negative connotation 
-the action of posting is sending an unspoken message
that you have to post a picture to read your bible
or it doesn’t count 

Conclusion
Every social movement has its successes and failures.
I believe based on the impact this one is currently making
that it is very effective. However, it is also sending an unspoken
message that in order to be a good Christian you need to post
a picture of you reading your bible or it doesn’t count, which might
affect it in a negative way.
