Frequently Asked Questions

Which reading plan is best for beginners?

The New Testament in 90 Days plan is an excellent starting point. It focuses on Jesus' life and teachings, which are the heart of the Christian faith. From there, you can expand to the full Bible reading plan.

What if I fall behind in my reading plan?

Don't worry about falling behind — just pick up where you left off. The goal is consistent engagement with Scripture, not checking boxes. If you miss a few days, simply continue forward rather than trying to catch up all at once.

Should I read the Bible in order from Genesis to Revelation?

That's one approach, but not the only one. Many people find it helpful to alternate between Old and New Testaments or to follow a chronological plan. The most important thing is to read regularly and thoughtfully.

How do I get the most out of my Bible reading?

Read slowly and reflectively. Ask questions of the text: Who? What? When? Why? How does this apply to me? Consider keeping a journal of your insights. And pray before reading, asking God to speak through His Word.
