As I’ve read the Bible over and over, I find that some years I’ve planned for my reading better than others. Many times I’ve started at Genesis and ended in Revelation, reading straight through, as much as I feel like reading every day. Other years I’ve read in a chronological Bible, which helps me keep track of the timing of events, especially when reading through the prophets.
The last couple of years I’ve used a 5 day reading plan. This one is chronological, which I prefer, it’s well paced, and contains passages from both Old and New Testament each day. The pace is five days per week, with two days for catch-up, which I’ve found helpful when I miss a day or two along the way.
If you’d like to give it try, you can access the plan at the Five Day Bible Reading website. Along with the plan, they have other resources you might like. This plan is free, and easy to print for your Bible or journal. That’s where mine sits all year as I mark off the reading each day.
Whatever plan you choose, pick one that motivates you to move forward. A plan itself only serves as a tool to help you access and enjoy a year of walking through the Word of God,.
May your reading draw you closer to the heart of God!

Hi Tiago. Thanks for letting me know. I don’t know what happened to their website. I can send you a PDF of the plan for 2024 if you’d like. Send me an email at dave.dishman@cru.org and I will get that to you. Hopefully their site returns soon.
