30 Day Bible Reading Tracks

                Periodically I publish different ways of dividing one's daily Bible reading to encourage people to read the Scriptures more thoroughly and effectively. Most people who have heard (or read) me teach on personal Bible reading know I am an advocate for reading the Psalms and Proverbs every month. This reading scheme is built with that discipline in mind. Whereas in the past I have developed plans for reading the entire Bible in just 30 days, that pace is not possible for many people and not sustainable for most. This handout divides the canon into multiple 30 day tracks, allowing the Bible reader to decide how often he wishes to survey the entire Bible and giving him a simple scheme for doing so. I hope some will find it interesting and helpful. –JME
