Bible Reading Plans
Read the whole Bible in a year!
To read the entire Bible in a year, you need to read about 22 or 23 chapters each week. That’s not as much as it sounds; for a 7 day a week plan, that’s 3 chapters daily and for 5 days a week, it comes to about 4-5 chapters a day.
This plan calls for 5 readings per week. The calendar is perpetual, meaning you can begin any time through the year. They’re numbered week 1, week 2 and so on, but you can write the real date in these pages to help you keep track. The chart is readable, and the very last pages give you a smaller chart that fits in your Bible to help you keep track.
Thanks to the good folks @ Bible Study Planet, download the document to print it or add annotations on your phone.
Remember, it’s not dated, so you can start today or tomorrow – right on time. If you get behind, just keep reading along. You can even do this plan with your friends & family. Simply download the file to your own computer or phone so you can check the boxes as you finish each reading.
You’ll be glad you did!!
