Who This Plan Is For

This plan is for believers who want to know the whole story of Scripture, not just their favourite passages. It works best for people who can commit fifteen to twenty minutes each day to focused reading.

Tips for Completing This Plan

  • Begin on any date. You do not have to start on January 1.
  • If you miss a day, continue from where you stopped. Do not restart.
  • Use the rest day option to build a buffer for busy weeks.
  • Pray before you open the Bible. Ask God to speak through what you read.
  • Keep a simple journal to note one thing that stood out each day.
