Interested in taking on a commitment to read the whole Bible over three years? You will read the New Testament twice and the Old Testament once over the three year cycle.
Three readings per day are supplied. The first is generally a whole chapter, and the second may be too (but longer chapters are split conveniently). The third reading is much shorter, and provides verses related to the other readings for the day. You may find it easier to do the short reading at lunch time (if you get a lunch break!). How you tackle the readings is up to you; the big thing is committing to get them done each day, whenever you choose to do them.
The following table provides the readings for three weeks at a time, to cater to those who fall a bit behind and those who can’t wait to see what’s coming next! We’ll update the table weekly, so you’ll just have to try to keep up!
Here it is (put your cursor over the reference and it will appear in a box):
| DAY OF THE WEEK | FIRST READING | SECOND READING | THIRD READING | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| We now come to the reading of Paul's Epistles, which we take in the order in which they were written, as far as we know. Galatians we take immediately before Romans and let Hebrews come at the end. | ||||
