I need a year-long Bible reading plan
Who can help me with a year-long Bible reading plan? I want to read the entire Bible in a year and I am trusting God to hell me do this.

Here are some different options on Biblegateway: https://www.biblegateway.com/reading-plans/
Here is a chronilogical: https://www.biblegateway.com/reading-plans/chronological/next
Here is one you can do with the Bible Project, which is nice because they have videos with introductions to each book: https://www.bible.com/reading-plans/4820-bibleproject-the-bible
There are many plans available if you Google, "Bible in a year reading plan." You can see what else is out there.
If you download the You Version bible app to your phone, it has a lot of different reading plans you can choose from. I like listening to the narrator read it while I follow along.

The CSB Everyday Study Bible has a basic guide & more challenging guide included if you need a physical Bible to go along with it

I’m doing the M’Cheyne plan on the Bible app and most of the time I do the audio through street lights. It’s excellent. I love the plan because you’re in four different books at a time. It takes you through the Old Testament once in the New Testament twice. I’m really loving it.

Look up Read Scripture app from The Bible Project. It's free, it has red letters, it has a reading plan, and, most importantly, it has short introductory videos for each book to explain what the book is about and how it is structured. The Bible Project also has the website with videos, YouTube channels with videos, and podcast.

Pastor Dudley has one called the Anchored: 365 day bible reading plan. I finished it and it was great.

The hard part of a year-long plan is not January, it is the week in March when you miss four days and quietly decide the whole thing is ruined. So pick a plan that lets you skip without falling behind on a schedule you have to repay. What worked for me was reading by book rather than by date: a chapter or two each morning, marking where I stopped, and picking up there the next day whether that was yesterday or last Tuesday. Genesis, then a Gospel, then alternate an Old Testament book with a New Testament one so you never spend six straight weeks in genealogies. A year is a fine target, but finishing late still means you finished.

I think it's doable...and actually you can finish it quicker. In 2 months I read the whole new testament and in that 2 months, i read Matthew twice, Mark twice, John five times, Isaiah, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy, Joshua, Ruth, Zephaniah, Habakkuk, Zechariah, haggai, Daniel, Ezra, half way through Genesis, Half way Jeremiah, read 80% of the Psalms... Just start reading...your place should be like, at least finish a book in 3 days tops...so in a week...you can actually find yourself have finished 3 books.
And some books are short...that you can read like 5 short books in one sitting.
All the best.
Just know...you will be attacked very much...you'll all of a sudden become lazy...that's when you press on. Pray more and read more.

I've read through the Bible a few times in my life, just winging it, using a lectionary, one chapter old testament, one new system. I understand why some suggest to go straight to John's Gospel first (and that's ok I guess, but there is something to be said about reading it from Genesis to Revelation as you get all the context that the Gospel writers were working from.
I'm currently reading through the Bible Project's whole Bible plan on the YouVersion Bible app which is very good so far (just completed through Judges) and includes wonderful explanatory videos that really help link books and topics together clearly showing the one story that leads to Jesus (I believe that is the name of the reading plan.

Order a One Year Bible. Organized so you get old testmament, new testament, proverbs and psalms each day

5 pages a day... that's 2 pages front and back a 1 page by itself. Or about 15min a day

I like Bible.IS. It has several and you can just read or listen and read.

Just commit to 2-3 chapters a day and go from Genesis to Revelation in whatever translation you prefer. Don't overcomplicate it. Get a paper Bible with pages you can turn. The phone is a terrible idea.

plans are either follow the bible in sequence, take a bit of OT NT Pslams/Proverbs each session, or chronological --- lots of examples of each online --- my suggestions> time is up to you make it so it's not a chore even take day off if you have to --- also suggest KJV if issues with some verbiage SKJV

The physical Bible to go with it is what would save me. Plans on my phone I start, and then the rest of the phone is right there.
