Want to read the Bible more in 2015? It's a worthy desire, if you have it. And you should have it, for the Bible is so important to our growth as Christians. Frankly, I think Scripture indicates quite clearly that you are not going to grow as a Christian without reading your Bible.
So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. (Romans 10:17)
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work. (II Timothy 3:16-17)
Here are a few suggested reading plans that you might find useful. If you find one you like, print it out and put it in your Bible. Mark off your progress as you follow the plan. And if you get behind, don't fret... just pick up where you left off and keep going.
Here is one that will take you through the entire Bible, Old and New Testaments, in one year - Through the Bible In A Year Plan
If your excuse is time, here is a great plan that only requires 5 minutes a day 5 days a week, leaving 2 days per week for catching up... reading something else... reflection... etc. If you struggle with setting aside time for God's Word, give this one a try - 5x5x5 Plan
This one is designed to guide you through the entire New Testament during the summer, but it is simply a 90 day plan for reading the New Testament. Use it once, or multiple times throughout the year to accomplish reading the New Testament as many as 4 times during 2015 - Read the New Testament in 90 Days Plan
Here is a beautifully designed chart to guide you through the Bible in a year - Bible Reading Chart
And here is another simple plan for reading the entire Bible in a year - Yet another 52 week Bible reading plan
Download and print any or all of these plans to help you in your Bible reading in 2015. Alternatively, any or all of them are available in printed form through the church office.
Let's get in the Word more in 2015!!
