How do these reading plans work?
Open a plan to see its readings. Each one gives you a Bible passage, a short introduction, and prompts to help you reflect, apply what you learn, and pray.
Do I need to finish a reading every day?
No. Read at your own pace. You can pause, repeat a reading, or return when you have more time. The times shown are estimates.
Guidance for thoughtful reading
Choose from the published reading plans available here and read each cited passage in an authorized Bible. Begin at a manageable pace and consider the surrounding context. You may pause, revisit or restart; no account or fixed schedule is required. Plans are study aids and do not replace Scripture.
