Does anyone adhere to a Bible Reading Plan?

I have for many years now; it keeps me disciplined. I started out reading the Bible in the year--this one is not for slackers. I did this both through the Bible--Genesis to Revelation--and chronologically.

That was a lot. So one year I did a reading that took you through the NT, plus a Psalms and Proverbs.

Then I read the Bible in two years. Then I did a combination prayer study/Bible reading.

Last year I powered down a bit and just read the NT in a year. Nice and easy; one chapter a day for five days a week. In 2025/2026, I plan to read the Bible in two years again.

Lots of great plans here if you're interested:

I still plan on ignoring the post-Ezra OT books. I usually just open mine up randomly when I'm not researching something specific. and mostly stick to the Pentateuch, Isaiah, and the 4 Gospels for my personal readings.

I wish I had your discipline but unless it is necessary (for work or a desired goal), I find.the impulse to bounce around to different texts,.sometimes.the Torah, other times the Talmud, then to other books about G-d, stories of those who found G-d etc. It is all dependent on my mood or interest in the moment I suppose. Your method is best but I require different selections or it feels stale,. I find it difficult to retain. Also, I am a better learner/absorber through audio sources as I age.

The Books of History are my waterloo every time I read them. I understand the general gist, but always get the kings mixed up, the battles mixed up, etc.

The Bible is of limited use if it's not true. Frankly, if I were not convinced it's true--that it talks of the true God, His plan, His people and most of all, His Son--I simply wouldn't bother.

I once read a book with 365 daily readings which provided three sections per day, coordinated and related if possible, such that by the end of the year you had read every word of the Bible.

Now I prefer the "Cliff's Notes."

Parenthetically, Dennis Prager's books on the Torah are enlightening and easy to follow.

Pray for Dennis.

Those kind of books can be okay or really not so much. Sometimes they take a certain "angle" and then attempt to curate the Bible to fit the angle. Sometimes this is legit IMO; sometimes not.

I have a study Bible and I love it. I mostly read the text but when questions arise the study notes usually provide insight. If not, there are other resources.

Either way it's true that some parts of the Bible are easier to re-read than others....

most is folly, nothing a spirit will miss if the spirit itself is true. the true jesus taught self determination the religion of antiquity as the only means for judgement nothing else matters. simply there are no sinners in heaven ... desert dwellers.

No need to attack people in this thread, just because you believe in Mormon weirdness.

Attack? You just called me weird. Get those fingers out or your own eyes if you are going to believe you are holier than thou

You don’t follow anything concerning Jesus Christ.

You don’t follow anything concerning Jesus Christ.

no physical evidence exist for either, the former is passed down verbally - the latter could only be made true through physical evidence.

- what physical evidence is there for the divinity of jesus ... or anyone who has ever existed.


garden earth, life is the physical evidence of the heavens - that does not include anything pertaining the desert religions.

 

[Meriweather]

Not true. We also go a step further and do not bear false witness. And, we hold, Love one another in high regard.

If you think faith and belief requires empirical evidence then you do not understand God at all.

You bear false witness when you attack and disparage the oracles of God. You teach terrestrial and telestial precepts of men mingled with scripture damning people from celestial glory. That is not love.

faith and belief lead to fruition - columbus had faith crossing the ocean would lead to another land, their faith led them to their goal.

without fruition faith and belief are meaningless no better than wishful thoughts. evidence is a substitute, garden earth and the heavens.

the forgeries and fallacies of the desert religious bibles, phony commandments et all are just that, puffs of smoke made up for particular agendas related only to those that made them up.

James taught Faith without works is dead. Did you know this? Others taught this as well in both OT and NT. It is your religion that is false.
