In a previous post I encouraged you to read through the entire Bible in one year. If reading through the entire Bible seems overwhelming, you can read through the New Testament in a year. If that still seems like a daunting task, don't despair! You can begin to read the Bible by reading a Bible verse each day. At the end of 365 days you will have read 365 Bible verses.
Bible Gateway Verse of the Day
Let me issue a caveat to this plan: it is rarely if ever a good idea to read a Bible verse alone. The danger is that you can easily take a verse out of context. It is better to read the preceding and following verses; better still, read the entire chapter. The whole point of reading a Bible verse each day is to help you to develop the habit of daily Bible reading and to eventually inspire you to read the Bible - the entire Bible. Make a commitment to begin daily Bible reading. This year, start with a verse a day. Next year, choose a Bible reading plan so that you will "grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ." (2 Peter 3:18)
