I’ll be using YouVersion to track my progress. If you want to know how long each book will take, I’ve done the math for both the Old Testament ( here) and the New Testament ( here).
The pace is a doable 3 chapter-ish a day, or 15-30mns depending on how quickly you’re reading. It takes the text and reorganizes it into a (conservative) timeline. And without friends, you’re probably not going to go hiking.įor this hike, we’ll be using Blue Letter Bible’s chronological plan. If there’s one thing I’ve learned in the mountains of Colorado it’s that hiking is more fun with friends. And after about a decade of that fiction, I’ve decided (by way of homage to sanity) to try something else: I’m inviting you, dear readers, to join me. And I’ve always thought that the truly spiritual person would be able to muscle his way through on his own.
Of course, as with all failed disciplines, every year I say I’ll do it and I start and it just never happens. Now, I’m pretty confident I’ve read most of the biblical text, but in the long heralded tradition of going through the entire text in a single year, I have yet to join the ranks of the faithful.Īnd yes, that’s pretty embarrassing to me. Fun fact about me: in all of my life, and all of my studies and all of my teaching positions, i STILL have yet to read through the entire Bible cover-to-cover.
