Read It Whole
A Year with the Whole Bible
The Old Testament once. The New Testament twice. A psalm and a proverb every day.
You’ve meant to read the whole Bible.
Maybe more than once.
You started strong in Genesis.
Somewhere around Leviticus, life happened.
Here’s the thing.
You don’t need a perfect streak.
You need a way back in.
Read It Whole is a year-long Bible reading plan
that starts whenever you do,
keeps your place,
and never makes you feel behind.
Four Threads, Every Day
The Old Testament: Genesis through Malachi, start to finish, about two chapters a day
The New Testament, twice: Matthew to Revelation, then again, so it has room to sink in
A psalm each day: straight through the Psalms, more than twice over the year
A proverb each day: the chapter that matches today’s date, the old way of doing it
No book is read alone. Every day holds a little of the whole story: law and gospel, poetry and letter, side by side.
Made for Real Life
Your Day 1 is whenever you begin. No waiting for January.
Today’s reading is always ready. Open it and your readings are there.
Tap to read. Each passage links straight to the NRSVue.
Check off as you go. Mark each reading done and watch your year fill in.
Grace upon grace. Fall behind? Pick up where you left off, or restart your calendar from that day with one tap. Your progress stays.
Notice Grace. A private journaling space every day for the verse that stayed with you.
See the whole story. Track how much of the Old Testament, New Testament, Psalms, and Proverbs you’ve read.
Read anywhere. It works on your phone, tablet, or computer, with nothing to download.
This Plan Is for You If…
You’ve started a read-through-the-Bible plan before and didn’t finish
You want to see how the whole story fits together
You need something simple you can do in 15–20 minutes a day
You want a plan with grace built in

Questions
When should I start?
Today, or any day you choose. Your Day 1 is whenever you begin.
What if I miss a few days?
That’s okay. You can go back to where you left off, or restart your calendar from that day. Your checkmarks and notes stay.
Which Bible translation does it use?
Each reading links to the NRSVue, but you can read along in any Bible you love.
Is my journal private?
Yes. Your notes are saved only on the device and browser where you write them. No one else can see them, including me.
