Every Word in the Bible 3-year Plan

Read through the Bible one chapter at a time. Readings alternate between the Old and New Testaments.

Historical Bible Reading Plan

The Old Testament readings are similar to Israel’s Hebrew Bible, and the New Testament readings are an attempt to follow the order in which the books were authored.

Professor Grant Horner’s Bible Reading System

Reading ten chapters a day, in the course of a year you’ll read the Gospels four times, the Pentateuch twice, Paul’s letters four to five times, the Old Testament wisdom literature six times, the Psalms at least twice, Proverbs and Acts a dozen times, and the Old Testament history and prophetic books about one and a half times.

Read the New Testament and Psalms twice and the Old Testament once.

Straight Through the Bible Reading Plan

Read straight through the Bible from Genesis to Revelation.

Tabletalk Bible Reading Plan

Two readings each day, one from the Old Testament and one from the New Testament.

Legacy Reading Plan

2-Year Bible Reading Plan

Read the Old and New Testaments once and Psalms and Proverbs four times.
