Read the New Testament in a Year

Read the New Testament in a Year

Incorporating regular Bible reading into your spiritual practice is always rewarding. If you’re looking for a manageable way to begin, reading through the New Testament in a year is a great option, only requiring one chapter per day, five days a week. This approach not only provides a deeper understanding of Jesus, but also strengthens your connection to your faith.

Establishing a daily routine can add a sense of calm and structure to your day. Including moments of prayer and reflection alongside your reading adds even more depth to the experience. As you immerse yourself in the New Testament, it can become a transformative journey, offering wisdom, guidance, and inspiration that permeates all areas of life.
