Read the Bible in one year

The 66-book Protestant Bible contains 1,189 chapters: 929 Old Testament and 260 New Testament. Over 365 days that averages about 3.3 chapters per day. This schedule assigns two or three Old Testament chapters each day, plus one New Testament chapter on 260 days. The remaining 105 days contain Old Testament readings only. Every chapter appears exactly once.

A 52-week Bible reading schedule

For weekly rather than daily accountability, treat each consecutive seven-day block as a week's target. A catch-up session at the end of each week helps you finish all readings without resetting the plan. That gives a practical 52-week rhythm using the same schedule, rather than an unnecessary second page with near-identical tasks.

Printable Bible reading plan and PDF

Use the 365-day checklist as a printable reading schedule. The complete plan can be downloaded as a PDF or printed for use beside a paper Bible. Your saved Checklist also keeps track of reading progress across visits. Prepare a personalized version from your selected readings when you want to focus on a shorter project.

Compare reading approaches

This plan reads the Old and New Testaments in parallel, with New Testament readings on 260 of the 365 days. The chronological Bible reading plan is ordered around historical eras and events, while the M'Cheyne Bible reading plan uses four distinct daily tracks and intentionally repeats some passages. For book-by-book tracking, see books of the Bible in order. For a short starting sequence, see the beginner Bible reading plan.

Who it's for

People who want a balanced one-year Bible reading schedule with clear daily assignments and ongoing progress tracking.

How to use

Begin with Day 1 on any calendar date, read the specified chapters, then check the day complete. Save your reading checklist and return to the first unchecked day. If you miss a day, resume rather than skipping its chapters.

To read with others, choose Save & Compare, start a group, and share the invitation link. Everyone checks off their own readings; personal notes stay private.

Bible Reading Plan Frequently Asked Questions

How much of the Bible should I read each day to finish in a year?

The Protestant Bible's 1,189 chapters average about 3.3 chapters a day over 365 days. This schedule includes all chapters exactly once.

Can I start my one-year Bible reading plan in November?

Yes. Begin at Day 1 on whatever date you choose; the assignments are numbered rather than tied to a calendar year.

What if I miss a day?

Resume with the next unchecked reading. You can read multiple assignments on a convenient catch-up day.

Is this a chronological Bible plan?

No. It draws from the Old and New Testaments in parallel. The separate chronological plan follows approximate historical order.

Can I print a Bible reading plan PDF?
