Bible Reading or Listening Plans

Someone has said, “The best Bible reading plan is the one you actually do.” Researchers report that it takes about 12 minutes of Bible reading per day to read the entire Bible in a year.

The following plans are offered as examples of ways you can begin or continue your life-long (even into eternity) pursuit of knowing God and His glorious plan of redemption through faith in Christ.

As you read the Scripture, take time to praise the Author, who is not only Lord and Master, but also Savior and Helper to those who trust in Christ.

If you find yourself falling behind, don’t feel pressured to “catch up” and then decide to quit. Just keep going from where you left off (or skip what you’ve missed and pick up on the current reading). Fellowship with God is not checking off a daily box, but rather a real relationship based on revelation and communication.

It can be very helpful to ask a friend to read or listen to the same sections and talk once or twice a week about what you are observing and learning.

No matter what (trials, pain, joys, temptations, victories, failures, or sin), keep going back to the One who is life and reveals Himself through His Son in His Spirit-inspired Word. It is a trustworthy statement, “Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners.” Praise God for that good news!

1 Jesus referenced the three-fold Jewish division of the OT in Luk 24:44. The Jewish structure and traditional book order for the Old Testament is followed in this resource (see Luke 24:44—The Law, the Prophets, and the Psalms [Psalms being the first and largest book of the section called, the "Writings"]). It is commonly referred to as the TNK or Tanak--Torah (Law), Naviim (Prophets), and the Kethuvim (Writings). For more information on the order of the Hebrew Canon see the FAQ Why Is There a Threefold Division of the Hebrew Canon? (Law, Prophets, Writings).

2 This plan is more for a sweeping overview and broad understanding rather than a detailed analysis. Some weeks you may need to spend slightly over 30 minutes a day to get through a book in 7 days. On average, however, it should be 20 minutes or less per day.
