Read King James Bible in One Year on Kindle

Are you considering reading through the whole Bible in this year? If so, I  highly recommend reading chronologically. While I've written in the by virtually why this is my favorite style to read the Bible, I thought I'd share some actual chronological Bible reading plans I – and others I know – take used in the past (and the one I'll be using for myRapid Bible Read Thru).

Whether yous want a reading plan for your telephone or tablet, a program you tin can print and apply with a Bible you lot already ain, or a physical Bible that's already laid out for you in chronological order – this post will get you headed in the right direction.

Every year, I enquire the people who are participating in the 4-Month Bible Read Thru what questions they have before we begin. A question I have already heard several times this year (and I hear it every year) is…

"What Bible – or reading plan – should I utilize?"

First…The "What" and "Why" of a Chronological Bible

If you already know about what chronological Bibles are and why they're helpful, get ahead and scroll down to the next heading for my start recommendation. Otherwise…

In general, the Bible IS written in chronological society (the order the events actually occurred).

Specifically, notwithstanding, there are many exceptions. You might be asking "Why would they put the events out of order?" A few reasons:

1. Some books cover the same time menses. The simplest examples are I & II Samuel, I & II Kings, and I & II Chronicles in the Onetime Testament or the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John in the New Testament. There is a lot of overlapping content within those books. Reading the dissimilar accounts of the same consequence is helpful to gain different perspectives.
2. Some books embrace amuch wider timeframe than others. This analogy might aid: Allow's say yous and I went to high school together. Y'all make up one's mind to write a book most our four years together. I also choose to write a volume – only only about the soccer flavour of our junior year. Reading my bookafter completing l-75% of yours would be the style to go.
3. Some books are poems, prophecies, or letters written past people whose stories are told in other books. If you lot're reading most the life of David in I & 2 Samuel, it is pretty cool to read a Psalm he wrote immediately after reading the event that inspired it. The aforementioned is true when reading one of Paul's letters – to the people in Ephesus, Philippi, Galatia, etc. – while reading the account of his missionary journeys in the book of Acts.

Now…my four recommendations…

1. The Chronological Bible Reading Plan from YouVersion

I am listing this i first but considering this is the plan I am going to utilize this year. (FYI – The 2d recommendation is the one I've used the last few years.)

There are lots of Bible apps and online plans out there.YouVersion is my favorite when it comes tomerely reading. You lot can hide all the notes, plow off sharing, and have nothing but the text on the screen.

If y'all are reading this on a calculator right now, here's the directly link to the page on the YouVersion site where you'll discover theChronological Reading Program.

If you're on your phone, install the free app (hither's the link), click "Plans," gyre down to "Whole Bible," and select "Chronological" near the bottom of the list.

WARNING: This app – and almost every Bible reading programme yous'll notice – is laid out to read through the Biblein a year. If you're participating in aRapid Bible Read Thru (or anything shorter than 365 days),simply ignore the dates. Set up an amount of time and read even so many days you can in that amount of fourth dimension.

two. The Printable Chronological Bible Reading Plan

I have put together a short eBook outlining every chapter in the Bible chronologically. You will observe a deeper overview of this process in the opening pages.

For me, it's helpful to just print the two pages with the chapter breakdowns and tuck information technology in my Bible.

Feel free to print information technology, copy information technology, or share information technology.

3. Chronological READING Bible (fewer notes) – Physical or Kindle

The Bibles recommended in this section, and the adjacent one, are perfect if you who want a Bible that isalready laid out for you chronologically.

They are all pretty much the same, except for where you notice the actress notes and commentary. The Bibles in this section take a few notes within the Bible text, simply a vast majority of the notes and commentary will be found at the get-go of the Bible and at the start of each book.

This makes these Bibles a good pick if yous take a hard time resisting the urge to read every notation, wait at every map, or pour over every nautical chart when you're reading. (Please tell me I'k not the just one who struggles with this!)

Hither are links to five major translations:

• CSB Day-by-Day Chronological Bible – Christian Standard Bible (Hardback, Paperback, or Kindle)
• The 1 Year Chronological Bible – New International Version (Hardback, Paperback, or Kindle)
• The One Year Chronological Bible – New Living Translation (Hardback, Paperback, or Kindle)
• The 1 Year Chronological Bible – New King James Version (Hardback, Paperback, or Kindle)
• The 1 Yr Chronological Bible – King James Version (Kindle Just)

4. Chronological STUDY Bible (more notes) – Concrete or Kindle

These Bible are the same as the ones above, except they have a whole heap of notes, charts, graphs, maps, and commentaryembedded correct into the pages alongside the Scripture.

I of the guys who has done the BRT with me the past several years bought the one for the New Male monarch James Version (link below) and he loved it! The only drawback he plant was that he was spendingmore time than he intended because the notes were so interesting. (There are certainly worse issues to have than spending too much fourth dimension in the Give-and-take!)

Since these Bibles also take a reference built in to help you lot find things in the "normal order," many people will buy 1 of these Bibles and use it as their master written report Bible.

Hither are links to four major translations:

• The Chronological Report Bible – New International Version (Hardcover or Kindle)
• Day-by-Solar day Chronological Bible – Christian Standard Bible (Softcover or Kindle)
• Chronological Life Application Report Bible – New Living Translation  (Hardcover or Kindle)
• The Chronological Study Bible – Male monarch James Version  (Hardcover or Kindle)

There you take it. If you have never read through the Bible chronologically – or at all! – give it a endeavour. It will give you a fantastic perspective and assistance you enter fully into God's big, amazing, challenging, beautiful story.
