Bible reading plan

Advent: the promised King

27 days, Nov 29 to Dec 25 · about 5 minutes a day

From the first promise in Genesis to the Word made flesh: 27 short readings, one for each day from Sunday, November 29 to Christmas Day. Each day has its date, and any day you haven't read stays open to read any time.

How this plan works

  • Each day has its date, from Sunday, November 29 to Christmas Day. Opening the plan shows today’s reading, and you can read ahead.
  • Any day you haven’t read stays open on your calendar to read any time.
  • Each day has a one-line prayer, the reading in the King James Version (tap any verse to highlight it, ask about it, or use it in your journal), and on some days a note and questions to think about.
  • When you finish, tap Mark as read. Your calendar fills in gold, and chapters you read fill in on your Bible map.
  • You can be on more than one plan at a time. Stop any time: everything you’ve read is kept, and you can pick up where you left off.

How to study each day

  1. PrayAsk God to open your eyes to His word.
  2. ReadRead the day’s passage slowly, in the KJV.
  3. ScripturePick one verse that stands out to you and write it in your journal.
  4. ObservationWhat does it say? Who, what, where, when?
  5. ApplicationWhat does it mean for you today? What will you do?
  6. PrayerPray it back to God in your own words.

Scripture, Observation, Application, Prayer: your journal on each day keeps them, and only you can see it. More help: how to study a passage.
