I found this reading plan through Tim Challies, and it’s what I will be doing this year. This was my plan of choice for several years! 5-Day a Week Whole Bible Plan With this plan you’ll have the prophets and historical books staggered according to when the events happened.
This can be very confusing and a roadblock to fully understanding the major and minor prophets, as well as the historical books. One of the perks of a chronological plan is how it makes sense of the timing of the Old Testament exiles.

Wonder why the books of the Bible aren’t in chronological order? Listen to the canon series of the podcast. This reading plan will take you through the entire Bible in the order the events occurred. This was the plan I did this year (for half of it), and if I hadn’t focused on individual books I definitely would have continued! I love that it is stretched out over two years rather than one (smaller portions) and that you go through Psalms/Proverbs four times during those years. Two-Year Whole Bible Plan + Psalms and Proverbs Remember: the goal is to seek the Lord, not to follow a plan legalistically. Choose what works best for you, but don’t be afraid to revisit it in a few months if it’s not working. If you are used to using devotionals and structured bible studies, congratulations! Moving on to personal inductive study is an awesome next step!įollowing are the plans. Each one achieves something different but also the same: a robust understanding of Scripture based on the actual text, not just secondhand knowledge. This post details five different reading plan options. This flexibility is how I’ve been able to read through the Bible every year for almost-five years (I say almost-five because halfway through this year, I quit my plan and focused on in-depth study of individual books – practicing what I preach!). You can quit the plan. Maybe the readings aren’t unachievable but you fall behind by a few days – you don’t have to catch up. Just start on that day’s reading.
If you can’t complete the daily readings on a consistent basis, the chapter chunks might be too big for your season. In fact – and I was going to save this for when I share tips for finishing your reading plans, but hey, let’s talk about it now – one of the keys to consistent bible study is flexibility. However, there is no bad time to choose a reading plan! You don’t need a new year to adapt your study, and you can quit a reading plan that isn’t serving you anytime.

I personally use the last week of December to plan my study focus for the next year along with my annual goals. I’m writing this at the turn of the new year, when many of us begin thinking about a Bible reading plan for the next twelve months.
