It is very late in the year to be making this recommendation, but I’ll look to post the 2024 version as soon as I can.
Christians, we need to be reading God’s Word often and with fervor, as if our life depends on it and as if it is our greatest joy. It is good to read the Bible through at least once a year, but that is a daunting task for many. Reading and studying God’s Word is not something that happens by chance; we must purpose and plan to accomplish this. It is good to approach our Bible reading in an organized fashion. One of my favorite methods to read through the Bible in a year is the five day a week method. It only adds a little extra each day, but it gives you some room that if you accidentally miss a day or part of a day’s reading. Didn’t get as far as you needed to on a particular day? There are two days extra to help make up for it. Now I don’t advocate ONLY reading five days a week (7 days a week is best), but you can use the extra two days if you have them to review some of what you read in the week and focus on some favorite passages. I also like to include a bit of Proverbs each day.
