Bible Reading
Many Christians take the beginning of a new year to evaluate their Bible reading habits, and then change or begin a Bible reading plan.
There are many approaches one can take when committing to read God’s Word. Perhaps reading the Bible in one year or two is a goal to be reached. Maybe instead of reading from beginning to end, taking a chronological approach would be a great adventure.
Of course, treasuring God’s Word is of the utmost importance and committing to come to the Father to be taught and cherished by Him is far more important than checking off a “to-do” list.
Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. — Psalm 119:105
Below you will find a wide variety of Bible reading Plans. We pray that this will strengthen your relationship with God and His Word.
