Bible in a Year.

The plan is sequential — you begin at Genesis 1 and end at Revelation 22, reading every chapter in canonical order. There are no streams, no tracks, no alternating between books. Just one chapter after another, from start to finish.

At 3.26 chapters per day across 365 days, some days call for three chapters and some for four. In practice, most chapters take five to eight minutes to read, so a daily reading seldom runs past twenty-five minutes.

This is a completion plan. The goal is to arrive at the end of the year having read every word of Scripture — not to study any single passage deeply, but to hold the whole in your mind at once. Many readers find that the connections between books become visible in a way that slower, more selective reading never allows.

Psalm 119 has 176 verses — roughly 11× the average Psalm and about 15–20 minutes of reading on its own. Rather than assign it as a single chapter, the plan splits it across four readings aligned with the 22 Hebrew alphabet sections: 119a (Aleph–Waw, v.1–48), 119b (Zayin–Kaph, v.49–96), 119c (Lamedh–Samekh, v.97–144), 119d (Ayin–Taw, v.145–176). This keeps your daily reading time consistent through what would otherwise be a very heavy day. All other chapters are read as written.

The plan works regardless of when you start. If you begin on any date, count forward 365 days — that is when you will reach Revelation 22. Beginning in March is not a compromise; it is simply a different start date.

If you fall behind, the goal is not to catch up on missed days by doubling the reading. Read what you can, mark where you are, and continue forward. A plan finished in fourteen months is better than one abandoned in February.
