Bible Study Reading Plan
Read through the Bible each year using the reading plan below, or using the Bible Reading Checklist. This is a checklist to read the Bible chronologically through in a year, made up of sixteen pages divided by Bible story. You must have Acrobat Reader to view the Acrobat files.

The reading plan consists of 360 Bible portions divided into 52 weekly readings. Each reading is listed by verse and by page number for the Narrated Bible. Some portions are very short and some are very long. The readings are divided to keep the amount of daily reading time approximately the same each week.
Please realize that this plan is only one option. Bible study is not measured in the number of verses we cover at one time, nor in the number of insights we are able to glean from one verse. Rather, the Bible is where we meet God to hear His Word. God opens our understanding when He sees fit. As always, God is in control. He knows the best time to reveal truth to us each individually.
You need to read the Bible at a pace you feel comfortable with. Our goal is to read though the Bible to get the whole picture. There's nothing special about a one-year or 52-week time frame. You can read though the Bible in two years or longer. This program is just a framework to get you started. Rely on the Holy Spirit to guide you through the readings. The most important thing for us to remember is not to focus on the quantity of information we learn but to remain faithful to whatever spiritual truth God has entrusted to our care.
It only takes 15 to 20 minutes per day to read through the Bible in a year. We suggest you set aside one to two hours (depending on your children's ages) for Bible lessons. In the following pages, we give you lesson ideas to use with the Four-Step Lessons.
Daily reading in the Narrated Bible
If you are reading through the Bible seven days a week you should average about five pages a day. If you are reading through the Bible five days a week, you will read an average of seven or eight pages per day.
