Read the bible in a year. Sound hard? ? Yup, but not impossible.
Most people who try to read the bible in a year start off good and then life hits, you hit a busy time, go on an active vacation, or you get to the laws, rituals, sacrifices, and all the details about building the temple, blaaaahh!!! I have read the bible daily for years, it has been a few years since a stuck to a plan. When I was on a plan, and I got to the laws etc. etc. I skimmed! Those were that days I did not read everything, those were easy days, but I still picked the bible up.
We will be joining a Pastor Karl Vaters in this journey. He has a weekly podcast and other resources. I have posted the link below. He has a recording that introduces the schedule and there is one recording for each week. If you do not want to use the electronic resource, please let me know and I can email or print out a transcript of what he says each week. The reading plan will be available by email or ask me and I will print you a copy

The key is to commit to at least picking up your bible once a day! Maybe find a partner and encourage one another. Even if all you do is read a few verses a day you are probably way farther ahead than you have been in the past. If you a miss a day or two or three… don’t give up, don’t worry about trying to read a whole bunch to catch up, just start where that day is. In Karl’s plan he even gives us Sunday off!
It is up to you how much time you are willing and able to commit but studies show that if you read your bible at least 4 days a week the spiritual growth is measurable for most people. So even if you miss a few days, you are still growing, you are being transformed! I promise you, if you put in the time, you will be rewarded!
I suggest getting a Study Bible, one that has notes and helps, that explain what you are reading to an extent (none of them explain every verse) We use the NRSV version here. Other easy ones to read are NLT, ESV, NIV and the Message Bible by Eugene Patterson is very helpful.
I invite you to start with me on January 1, 2024
