Time in God's Word - Vital to Christian Life!
It is absolutely vital that you spend time reading God's Word EVERYDAY. There is no one right way. This page is meant to give you some helpful pointers and provide resources to guide you.
First Step: Commit and be Persistent
Commit to reading the Bible each day.
Choose a time of the day and protect it.
Most reading plans are numbered Day 1, 2, etc. If you miss a day, just keep reading and catch up as time allows.
Don't read to study every detail but read the Bible as God's Big Story and see the little stories within the entirety.
HOWEVER, always obey the prompting of the Holy Spirit. If so led to stop, ponder, and reflect--then do so!!!!

Second: Mix-It Up!
If you have read the same version of the Bible for years, mix it up and read a different translation. You will be blessed to see God's Word from a different angle of perspective and God will open scripture to your fresh eyes.
Third: Choose a Bible Reading Plan
