2026 Bible Reading Plan - Six Days A Week

2026 Bible Reading Plan: Read God's Story

1 Year Chronological Plan

Our 2026 daily Bible reading plan organizes the material of the Bible in chronological order, allowing it to flow smoothly. Since exact dating of some materials or events is not possible, the chronology simply represents an attempt to give the reader the general flow and development of the Bible’s grand story. Some passages are placed according to topic (e.g., John 1:1-3 in Week 1, Day 2; and many of the Psalms). There are six readings for each week, providing you with space to catch up when needed. Feel free to use the YouVersion app to access this reading plan. This will work best on mobile devices.

If your preference is to have it in PDF form, follow this link, and you can print it. Also, I'm working on the scripture reading with links to Biblegateway.com, so you can read it there and listen to your preferred version online. This will work best on a desktop or laptop computer.

Consider using the questions from the Discovery Bible Study (DBS) to process your readings. Record your answers to these questions in a journal and/or discuss them with others who are reading the same biblical text.
