January 2010 Bible Reading (Plan 1: Multiple Books)

Through the Bible in One Year: January 2010 Bible Reading


We will be reading the Bible once through this year. Below you will find a reading schedule for Monday-Saturday. We'll see how this schedule goes for January and adjust accordingly.

On Your Own
-Pray. Take this time to pray for this time of hearing God speak through the living Word of God.
-Read. Underline, highlight or take note of any words, phrases, verses that stand out or confuse you. You will eventually develop your own way.
-Ask yourself these three questions as you read through the text. You may have to read the text a few times.
o What does the passage say? Read it at least once and, if necessary, compare different translations.[1]
o What does it mean? What did it mean to the person who first wrote it and those who first read [and heard] it? Extra reading (like commentaries or articles on this text) may help here. Write down questions, items to note, etc.
o How does it apply to me, my family, my [school] or work, my neighbors, the society around me? …It is when we see the relevance to our own lives that Bible reading becomes so exciting and we become conscious that we are hearing God’s voice? Think also about the words, phrases that really stood out to you. Why do you think they stood out? Is God saying something to you?
**Sundays will be a day of rest as you hear the Word of God by Pastor Rana or Pastor Paul. However, please think about the Word that day as you worship Him!
