Bible Reading Schedule

As a church this year we are reading through the books of the New Testament, 1 chapter a day!

This reading plan is organized primarily by author. We begin with the gospel of Mark, a fast-paced account of the life of Christ. Mark penned the words, but Peter was the source and voice behind the pages. With that in mind, we will then read the letters written by Peter.

From there, we’ll read Luke’s account of the gospel, and since he is the author of Acts, we’ll go right into his historical record of the early church. In Acts, we’ll be introduced to Paul, so then we’ll read his letters to the churches.

After Paul, we’ll read John’s gospel, his letters, and the revelation that he received on the end times. Much of the language in his revelation is symbolic, but it serves as a warning and an expectation of things to come. We’ll finish the year out reading through the remaining authors of the New Testament.

Reading one chapter, five days a week, will take us through the New Testament in one year. This will also allow a couple of extra days each week to either catch up on missed days or to add other portions of Scriptures, such as Psalms or Proverbs.

“All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.” – II Timothy 3:16-17
