I don't mean cover-to-cover, I rarely mean that. It takes a great deal of perseverance to do something like that. But it is possible to tackle the Bible in portions, doing old testament and new testament texts continuously daily. I accomplished it once, about fifteen years ago, when I was young and enthusiastic, and I used a programme plotted by an American organisation called Catholics Come Home Network. I think I'll start again now, and I suspect that it may be different after the seminary programme that I have completed since.
On this page is a full set of instructions and suggestions and several reading plans, if you would like to launch out on this ambitious programme. I shall use this one. These plans do require you to thumb through your own bible, which is very nice. But people who like using their phones, tablets, etc. have the benefit of the excellent Verbum app, which pulls out the relevant texts from the Bible and presents it ready-made every day, and that may be easier.
Let's see how far I get. Progress will be demonstrated on this page.
