Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. - Psalm 119:105

Bible Reading Plans

 

Reading through the Bible, along with prayer is the essential way to grow in Christ!   

 
If you want to develop your faith as a Christian, then you must set aside time for prayer and reading the Bible. Yet, so few of us do so! You must ask the question, what gets in the way of my time with God? How much does TV, over working, or hanging with friends take of you and your time?
 
 
 
 
 
Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. Joshua 1:8

Condensed Bible Reading Chart

Read through the BIBLE in one year with our new, better formatted reading guide! This is a condensed Bible reading chart to place in your Bible. If you are new to daily devotions or reading the Bible or have been away from it for a while, we recommend you use the New Living Translation from Tyndale House Publishers, for your devotional reading. Even seasoned Bible expositors enjoy this translation for their reading! And for serious Bible study, we recommend the English Standard Version, or the New International Version, the New King James, or the New American Standard Bibles.

Bible Reading Record

Here you can keep a log of what and how much of the Bible you have read! As you go through God's Word, you can record your Bible reading progress! You can also start at any time of the year, with any book, as you are not obligated to dates or sequence.

You can also go at your own pace; pickup and start anywhere!

Weekly Bible Reading Plan

Read through the Bible weekly. This plan is designed to be more flexible for you. So instead of having an assigned daily reading, you have your reading for the entire week. That way, you can fit it into your busy schedule, as sometimes we have more time on one day than we do another.

Reading the Bible through in a year takes less time than you would spend watching one half-hour sitcom of TV each day or playing a half dozen songs on your MP3 player. You can read the entire Bible in a year in about 20 minutes a day! Is a little TV more important than God in your life? How much of your life will the One who created and saved you get?

These plans are designed for those who seek deeper meanings and insights into God Word, or would like a change from the traditional Bible reading logs and charts.
 
 
 
This Bible plan is designed to help you not get bored or give up!
 
 
Read the Bible in a Year is a plan to guide your daily Bible reading. Its design allows you to pace yourself and to begin reading at any point of the year (not just January 1st).
 
The more you read the Bible, the more you know about God, life, and how to better lead your life!
 
Welcome to a journey, a trip through the most famous and well-read book of all - The Bible. You have opted to follow a chronological order, which is worked out in date order, as the books were written. While this list isn't guaranteed to be exact, many theologians have agreed on this order. Read the events of the Bible as they occurred chronologically. For example, the Book of Job is integrated with Genesis because Job lived before Abraham.

Bible Reading Plan in Historical Order

This plan will take you through the entire Bible in an historical linear timeline order with the first events first to the last. Each line represents a day's reading, and you may progress as you do your devotions in any order you would like. This list will take one year if each line is read each day. If you read more on one day and less on another, you can still track your progress.

Large Print Bible Reading Plan

This Large print guide is designed to be easier to see and read. This reading plan is also more flexible for you. You have your schedule for the entire week to go at your own pace.

One Year Bible Reading Plan

The Bible is the most important and essential book in history because it is God's Word and His revelation of Himself, His precepts, and His purpose for our lives. As a Christian, you cannot and must not function without it! Here is a Bible reading guide to help you discover the Bible's full message in a good, systematic way. With this plan, you can read the entire Bible, all 66 books, the entire Old Testament once and the New Testament twice in one year! An average reader can do this in less than a half an hour each day, with most doing it in 20 minutes. This is a similar plan as the "One Year Bible" by Tyndale, which we also highly recommend.

TIP: To help you stay on schedule, consider enhancing your Bible reading by listening to the Bible being read on cassette, CD, or MP3 as you daily drive in your car, exercise, or work around the house. You can purchase this, borrow it from a library, or record it for yourself into a tape recorder!

We fail in our duty to study God's Word not so much because it is difficult to understand, not so much because it is dull and boring, but because it is work. Our problem is not a lack of intelligence or a lack of passion. Our problem is that we are lazy. R.C. Sproul
