One Paragraph: Growing as a Christ Follower

If you think you are ready to expand your Bible reading journey, this plan is 6 months. In it, you will read through the New Testament. You can use this plan for as along as you need.

Tips for the journey

1. Set aside about 30 minutes every day.
2. Before you start reading, pray and ask God to give you one word, a phrase or a mental picture while you read.
3. As you read, circle, underline, or highlight words in your Bible that connect with you.
4. Read slowly, without rushing. If you have time, read the chapter again a second time.
5. Bible reading is not just about using the intellectual part of your mind; the Bible comes alive when you read it with your imagination and the creative part of your mind.
6. When you finish reading, write down one word, sentence or mental picture followed by a few sentences, one paragraph,  reflecting on what God gave to you.
7. End your time with God by saying a simple prayer for the day ahead.
