About this plan

One chapter a day takes about 3–4 minutes, which makes this the easiest plan to keep. It reads the New Testament in order: the four Gospels, Acts, Paul’s letters, the other letters and Revelation.

Weekends have no reading on purpose. Use Saturday or Sunday to catch up on a missed day, reread the chapter that stayed with you, or talk about the week’s reading with a friend or your small group.

How to keep going

Questions

How long does it take to read the New Testament?

About 14–19 hours in all. At one chapter a weekday it takes a year; at three chapters a day it takes about three months (see the New Testament in 90 Days plan).

Why one chapter a day?

Because it is short enough to keep. A chapter takes about 3–4 minutes, so missing a day is easy to make up, and a whole year of small days adds up to the whole New Testament.

What happens on weekends?

Nothing is scheduled. Catch up, reread, or rest. The tracker counts weekdays only, so a weekend never puts you behind.
