Discipleship Journal Bible Reading Plan

The Navigators Bible Reading Plan will aid you in your journey through the Bible. The Plan provides four tracks from four areas of the Bible―Gospels, Acts/Epistles, Wisdom books, and the rest of the Old Testament―with a box for you to check off each one as you complete the reading. This 25-pack is perfect for distributing copies amongst a group or sharing with others.

• By reading from the four tracks in the Scriptures every day, you should be able to better grasp the unity of the Scriptures, as well as enjoy the variety of four different viewpoints. For example, January 1 lists the following passages: Gospel track: Matthew 1:1-17; Acts/Epistles track: Acts 1:1-11; Wisdom books track: Psalm 1; and Old Testament track: Genesis 1–2.
• You can begin on any day during the year.
• To prevent the frustration of falling behind, which most of us tend to do when following a Bible reading plan, each month of this plan gives you only 25 readings. Since you’ll have several “free days” each month, you could set aside Sundays either not to read at all or to catch up on any readings you may have missed in the past week.
• If you finish the month’s readings by the twenty-fifth, you could use the final days of the month to study the passages that challenged or intrigued you.
• If reading through the entire Bible in one year looms as too large a task, you can alter the plan to meet your needs. For example, you could read the Gospels and the Wisdom books this year, and the other two categories next year.
