## Description

This plugin shows the current day’s scripture readings and fasting rule from the
Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America. To show the daily readings
and fasting rule, you simply paste the following shortcode on whatever page you 
want to display the content.

    ```
    [daily-bible-readings content="all"]
    ```

The plugin automatically retrieves new content from the Antiochian Archdiocese once
a day so it is always up to date.

[Click here](http://allsaintsorthodox.org/daily-readings/) to see a live demo.

If you want more fine-grained control, you can choose to display only specific things
by changing the argument to the “content”
 attribute in the shortcode. The allowable
arguments are: * “all”: show all the content * “date”: show only the date * “fasting”:
show only the fasting rule text * “readings”: show only the scripture readings with
titles

For instance, if you want to only show the date and the fasting rule, you can put
the following two shortcodes on your page:

    ```
    [daily-bible-readings content="date"]
    [daily-bible-readings content="fasting"]
    ```

Initially, the readings only show short snippets of the reading text. Clicking “
Read More” dynamically reveals the rest of the text without loading a new page.

Note: this plugin relies on the following 3rd party web services from the Antiochian
Archdiocese:

This is a wonderful offering in a market that doesn't offer much in English for 
the Orthodox Christian faithful! This is digital evangelism at it's finest. The 
plugin was very easy to install and use. The output borrows from our site CSS and
has no branding, links or anything to bloat it. It's a generous plugin! 5 stars.
