Each year at around this time, Christians all over the world stop to take stock of how they have done in Bible reading. These Bible reading plans are helpful in that evaluation but also in setting a new course for how one is going to read the Bible. As the old saying goes, if you fail to plan, you plan to fail. I would like to encourage you all to choose a plan from the list below which best suits you. The main point of all this is to get us all in the Word of God for that is where we find true nourishment for our souls.

Here are the various plans:
