Would you like to read the whole Bible this year but not too sure where to start? Maybe you think that you could never read through the Bible in a year? Do you realise that if you spend about 20 minutes reading per day then you will read through the Bible this year. Well if that sounds too much you can try 10 minutes reading in the morning and then another 10 minutes in the evening.
There are many different reading plans available but if you are not sure which one to choose how about the One Year Tract Bible Reading Plan by Good News Publishers. This plan splits the Bible readings into 4 parts (e.g. January 1 you read Genesis 1, Matthew 1, Ezra1, Acts 1) so you can see how easy it is to split the readings between mornings and evenings (e.g. Genesis 1 and Matthew 1 in the morning and Ezra 1 and Acts 1 in the evening).
If you decide to use this plan then there is a blog called For the Love of God by D A Carson which can be used with this and is a daily devotional plan taking a person through the Bible in a year.
The following tips are worth remembering:
- Don’t give up. If for any reason you miss a days reading then read an extra couple of chapters the next day and if you do that two days running you will have caught up.
- If you find you have some spare time why not do two days reading one day so that you get ahead of yourself and if you then miss a day then you will not be behind.
