Readers Respond: What Daily Bible Reading Plan Do You Use?
Responses: 7

By Mary Fairchild, About.com

From the article: Top Bible Reading Plans
An important essential in the Christian life is spending time each day reading God’s Word. Having a daily Bible reading plan will provide a guide to keep you on track. Throughout the years, I keep coming back to the same Bible reading plan because I've found that it works well for me. It's The Victory Bible Reading Plan, by James McKeever, Ph.D. However, from time to time, I'm inclined to try a new and different approach to my daily Bible reading, so I'm interested to know what works best for you.

What daily Bible reading plan do you use and why do you prefer it over others?

The One Year Living Bible

I've used a few different reading plans, but the One Year Bible seems to be the most convenient for me. Everything is laid out for you and you get to read something from the OT, the NT, a Psalm, and a Proverb every day. There are no schedules to follow or check marks to make. You just open up and read. Plus you can use it year after year.

My Choice of Bible Reading Plan

I chose the plan by Christadelphia.net. Daily readings are from 3 sections (Beginning with OT, Prophets, NT). We feed our bodies 3x daily, how about our heart, soul and mind?

Our Bible Reading Plan

Try a Bible-Book-a-Month plan, which a group (for example, a whole church) can follow together. It is on my new blog www.HintsforBibleReaders.com.

My Plan

I have a plan where you read three Psalms each Sunday; fifteen Old Testament chapters each week, two each day but three on Saturday; and five New Testament chapters, one each weekday, Monday through Friday; and it gets you through the entire Bible in one year. It has to be re-formatted each year since you read different things on each day of the week, but with a few guideline rules to follow, it is easy to format. I create it myself in Excel. Friends are always urging me to publish it.

Helping Children Read the Bible Daily

I use the Bible Bookmarks with our church kids and it's been a real blessing.

Front to Back

After years of using Bible study guides, I decided to start reading the Bible from front to back and what a joy! I suddenly discovered so many new truths from old familiar texts, I had to slow down. I look forward to my daily reading and quiet time and find that I want to read more.

My Reading Plan

Well, what I do is open my Bible and start reading! I begin on page 1 and keep on reading.
