This is a Bible reading plan with added helps. It contains room for you to make notes. I'm going to help you read and understand the Bible. If you pick up a Bible and try to read it cover to cover, from Genesis through Revelation, it's probably not going to work. Here's why: You'll get bogged down, and it won't make sense. The Bible is a collection of 66 "books" that were arranged in their present order by scholars hundreds of years ago. There's nothing inspired about the order in which they arranged these books, and the arrangement doesn't make sense to most modern readers. I don't want you to get totally lost. That's why I'm going to detour you around all that confusion, and arrange the readings in a way that will make more sense. I will get you through all 66 books-all 1,189 chapters of the Bible, but we'll take a very different route. I've arranged the Bible into seven sections, each one centered around a person: 1. Jesus, Author of Life 2. Paul, Transformed Leader 3. Moses, the Man Who Built a Nation 4. David, the Man After God's Own heart 5. Solomon: Magnificence to Decline 6. Isaiah: A Towering Vision of God 7. Daniel: Rebuilding After Disaster Each of these people will be the focus for seven weeks of reading. You'll read an average of 91 verses a day-or around three chapters-sometimes more, sometimes less. In addition, you will find: Easy start for Bible newbies A guide to making sense of the Bible Which version of the Bible should I read? How reliable is the Bible? 12 paradigm shifts in the Bible A summary of the Bible Bible favorites and where to find them Table of Bible books Kings and prophets Timeline for exile and return 7 reasons I choose Jesus And much more... There's room next to each day's reading opportunity for you to jot down your notes so you can truly make this book your own. Even if you've never picked up a Bible before in your life, I will get you through it. When you finish, you'll have a good handle on what the Bible says, how to read it, how to understand it, and how to experience the transformation it offers.
