Stream 1

Gospels

LukeJohnMatthewMark

Luke → John → Matthew → Mark → loops

Picks up from Luke 1 after Starter. Loops endlessly — you are always in the Gospels.

Stream 2

Wisdom & Worship

PsalmsProverbs

Psalms and Proverbs, alternating daily

One day Psalms, next day Proverbs. Continuous through both books.

Stream 3

Scripture

OTNT Letters

Old Testament and NT Letters, alternating daily

One day in Genesis–Malachi, next day in Acts–Revelation. Keeps both moving without doubling the load.

The Scripture stream in Standard A alternates between the Old Testament and NT Letters day by day — so you're always in both, just not every day. It keeps both moving without adding a full extra chapter daily.

Standard B separates these into two streams, so you're reading in both every day. It's the same content, just a higher daily volume. If 30–45 minutes feels sustainable, stay on A. If you're ready for 45–60, move to B.

Move to Intensive.

When Standard starts to feel manageable — when the daily reading is no longer a discipline but a default — Intensive is the next step. It splits the Old Testament into three separate streams, giving each section of Scripture its own dedicated chapter every day.
