Bible Reading Plans
My Bible Reading is pretty patchy. So these are not the pearls of wisdom from a master.
I don't know about you, but I desperately need variety in my daily Bible reading and pray - it so easily become a dry routine for me. So, I keep using different methods.
Sometimes I'll use a structured Bible reading program like the Robert Murray Mccheyne program that take you the whole Bible in one year or 3 years. Sometimes I'll do this with a devotional book - the best ones, like Search the Scriptures by Alan Stubbs (an oldie but a goodie), ask questions rather than give answers. Recently I read thru Andrew Reid's commentary on Daniel while reading the text, really refereshing. Sometimes I'll read Bible book in a longer setting. See the most natural reading plan for a good example - I find this helps me to reflect on a larger pierce of Scripture over a number of days. On that topic, I'm finding myself getting slower and slower in my Bible reading - taking a passage and spending the week reading it each day and continuing to reflect and meditate upon it rather than reading passage after passage with not enough time for reflection.
