A good friend recommended this schedule. It was published back in 1983 by Fullgrowth Ministries of Tulsa, OK. Here is how that publication recommends you use their schedule:
If you follow this plan devised by Fullgrowth Ministries of Tulsa, Oklahoma, youll read the New Testament through twice and the Old Testament once during the next 12 months.
The plan recommends that you do your reading at a specific quiet time each day. If you miss a day, continue with the current days reading and catch up when you have extra time. After you finish your days reading, mark off that day.
The Old Testament portions are presented as nearly as possible in chronological order. Passages from prophets are included in the historical narrative where they were given, they are often given in a single days reading.
Youll encounter Psalms throughout the year. Frequently, a Psalm that fits a particular passage has been placed with that passage.
As you enter the New Testament, youll read Luke and Acts first, then the letters - with periodic passages from other Gospels - and, finally, Revelation. Thus, the story of the life of Christ is constantly related to your Christian life.
I want to add how very important it is that you follow the guidelines given to read the passages for the date given and catch up when you have time. I have tried reading catch up stuff before the current days reading after a family crisis took me away from reading for a couple of days and it just didnt work.
I have provided here the reading for the month of May. The photocopy that I have says that this schedule is copyrighted by Fullgrowth Ministries, but it also says, feel free to re-print this chart for use in your church, Sunday school, or just to give to friends. You are my friend if you got this far into this post. I hope this blesses you as much as it has my wife and me. I do plan to post each months schedule from the chart before each month begins in the future.
You can listen to some of my readings from the Bible on
The Living Bible page of this blog. Thanks for visiting.
